Rich, obviously the doctor or medical professional is best to seek help from but if for some reason you have arthritis or a certain type, I do know that drinking plenty of water helps, at least with the arthritis I have. Doctor says its a reality for me at this age and I know you have 10 years or better on me, I try not to think about what the doc says is going on, kind of deny it, never use it for a crutch, really hard to believe sometimes but there are days or brief periods of time, where its debilitating, (have it in the ankles, one was cleaned out during surgery, other still untouched)
I have found that getting enough water eliminates the worst of it, most of the time, but still have to research or learn more about what I can do to combat it. I am still in disbelief that the mass the doctor surgically removed from the top of my foot and the degenerated bone matter he literally scooped out is a direct result of arthritis, and that I really can't take a chance with it, working at the farm dealing with thoroughbred horses, getting stepped on, or having it give out while one is on the lead shank. Very likely I'm done in that capacity and headed back into my career, well at least the pay is much higher and the hard labor is not required LOL !
Maybe just the weather, but if more persistent but I'll bet where you come from there's some "old" (no pun intended LOL) school remedies or medicine out there to help, besides or in addition to modern medicine. Hopefully just the weather but man there are times when it can just stop you in your tracks, really something to fear and try figure out how to minimize as age creeps up. Reason I chimed in was like so many others, arthritis sure hits home nowadays.

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana.
