<p><span style="color: #3b464c; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 16.2px;">經常聽到長者說：「關節又緊又痛，痛症又發作！」。關節痛其實是長者的常見病痛之一，不少長者每逢天氣轉變，關節痛就會發作，往往疼痛難忍。</span><span style="color: #3b464c; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 16.2px;">長者主要的關節痛有風濕性、類風濕性、退化性，而最常見的則是退化性關節炎。這種關節炎常發生在膝、肩、肘、髖等大關節處。急性發作時關節局部紅腫，有痛、熱等發炎現象，更會出現無力、運動障礙等感覺。</span></p>

<p><span style="color: #3b464c; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 16.2px;">為甚麼轉天氣會導致關節痛呢？</span></p>
<div id="newline" style="font-size: 16.2px; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 16.2px; color: #3b464c;">&nbsp;</div>
<div id="newline" style="font-size: 16.2px; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 16.2px; color: #3b464c;">&nbsp;</div>
<p><span style="color: #3b464c; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 16.2px;">長者在天氣冷的情況下，運動量會較少，筋骨容易缺乏伸展的機會。而且天氣會因為冷縮熱脹的原故而令肌肉變得繃緊，當氣溫突然下降，繃緊的肌肉可能會突然收緊或痙攣，痛症便會因此沒有先兆地出現，嚴重者可致受傷機會增加或令未復元的舊患痛楚加劇。為了防禦天氣變化對關節疼痛的影響，應做到以下幾點：</span></p>
<div id="newline" style="font-size: 16.2px; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 16.2px; color: #3b464c;">&nbsp;</div>
<p><span style="color: #3b464c; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 16.2px;">1.用暖水袋或電氈敷患處，每次十五至二十分鐘。熱敷可增加血液循環，並提高肌肉柔軔性，舒緩痛症。</span></p>
<div id="newline" style="font-size: 16.2px; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 16.2px; color: #3b464c;">&nbsp;</div>
<p><span style="color: #3b464c; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 16.2px;">2.進行物理治療;以外在電、光、熱或手法治療等減輕發炎現象及達到止痛效果，另外強化肌肉運動，都可以大大減輕痛楚。</span></p>
<div id="newline" style="font-size: 16.2px; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 16.2px; color: #3b464c;">&nbsp;</div>
<p><span style="color: #3b464c; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 16.2px;">3.平均分配作息時間， 避免長期站立或步行，或讓膝關節經常保持同一姿勢。</span></p>
<div id="newline" style="font-size: 16.2px; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; line-height: 16.2px; color: #3b464c;">&nbsp;</div>
<p><span style="color: #3b464c; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 16.2px;">4.若關節痛楚痛影響日常活動，便要看醫生和 接受物理治療。</span></p>
