One of the most common diagnoses is a joint disease, which is especially acute in old age. Despite the fact that damage to cartilage and joints is considered a problem of older people, recently these diseases are increasingly beginning to bother young people and even children.
There are many reasons why these pathological processes occur, which is why it is important to recognize and eliminate them in a timely manner. It is necessary to carry out necessarily complex therapy, using special drugs for this.
Gel "Artrocin" refers to 3rd generation chondroprotectors and has a balanced complex composition, so that you can quickly get rid of joint diseases. In addition, it helps to slow down the development of pathological processes of the musculoskeletal system.
The composition of the drug
The composition of the gel "Artrocin" includes a whole complex of essential oils of medicinal plants, in particular such as:
- lavender;
- rosemary;
- laurel;
- sagebrush.
In addition, this preparation contains extracts of hop cones and incense root. The gel is enriched with bee venom and vitamin P. All active ingredients that make up the Arthrocin gel are completely dissolved in its water base. Due to this, it has an acidity close to the acidity of the skin, does not clog pores, and it can be evenly distributed on the surface of the skin.
Indications for use
Organs and tissues that are under significant stress should be updated in a timely manner. At a young age, this happens without difficulty. Over the years, cartilage tissue, especially that located in the knee joints and vertebrae, loses its ability to quickly recover.
The spine and knees are very poorly tolerated, pain, heaviness, and also a feeling of discomfort begin to occur. Movements become constrained and cause a lot of inconvenience. This means that the joints of these departments cease to function normally and recover. As a result of this, serious destructive processes are observed. Cartilage tissue needs additional means by which it can be quickly restored. Such stimulants include the gel "Arthrocin", which is used for:
- radiculitis;
- osteochondrosis;
- rheumatoid arthritis;
- spondylosis;
- osteoarthrosis.
In addition, with the help of this tool you can eliminate pain and restore damaged joint tissues, as well as eliminate the effects of spinal injuries. It is worth noting that this remedy is not used for self-treatment, since complex therapy is required for diseases of the joints and cartilage.
All drugs should be prescribed only by the attending doctor, who determines the recommended dosage and course of therapy.
Operating principle
Glucosamine and chondroitin are one of the most important substances that are required for the normal functioning of joints and their recovery. They increase the elasticity and flexibility of articular tissue and cartilage, and are also part of the synovial fluid.
Thanks to the use of Arthrocyte gel as part of complex therapy, the development of joint diseases slows down or completely stops. In addition, the drug helps to significantly reduce the inflammatory processes that occur in the affected area, and eliminate pain.
Thanks to the use of chondroprotectors, as well as the “Arthrocin” warming gel, it is often possible to achieve very good results and even reduce the dosage of anti-inflammatory drugs that are prescribed for joint arthrosis.
Vitamins that are part of the drug have a strengthening and antioxidant effect on connective tissue. Herbal extracts help to normalize the metabolism in the cartilage tissue, have an anti-inflammatory effect and slow down the process of destruction of the cartilage tissue.
Natural ingredients help eliminate pain, reduce inflammation, and prevent salt deposition.
Application features
According to the instructions for use of the "Artrocin" gel, it helps to very quickly eliminate painful sensations, reduce swelling and swelling in the area of affected joints, and also stimulate the production of synovial fluid. This tool is applied to the skin in the affected joint with a thin layer, and then rubbed with lightly massaging movements. The gel is applied 2-3 times a day, for 3-5 days, then you need to take a break for 2-3 days. Thus, treatment is carried out throughout the recovery period. The course of therapy is approximately 1-4 months, it all depends on the severity of the pathological process. It is important to remember that on the skin at the place of application of the gel should not be abrasions, wounds, scratches and other injuries.
The gel is recommended to be used a few days after the injury or immediately after the onset of pain, as this will significantly reduce the recovery period, as well as prevent the occurrence of chronic diseases.
