Joint pain caused by osteoarthritis, gout, or rheumatism can often be relieved with natural remedies – some of which are home remedies that most of us have at home.

Knee pain and swelling are quite common problems that can have various causes. They are most often associated with joint overload, injury or degenerative changes.

The most common causes of knee pain and swelling are:

Arthritis: Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and other types of arthritis cause inflammation of the joints, leading to pain, swelling and reduced mobility.
Injuries: Sprains, ligament tears, meniscus or cartilage tears, dislocations and fractures can cause acute pain and swelling.
Bursitis: Inflammation of the lining of the joint capsule, which manifests as pain and swelling in the knee joint.
Gout: A serious inflammatory disease of the joints that causes sudden, severe pain and swelling.
Overuse: Long-term overuse of the knee during sports or other activities can lead to inflammation and pain.
Infections: In rare cases, knee pain and swelling can be caused by an infection.
Natural pastes made from cabbage, cottage cheese, or mustard have proven to be the best.

It was a guarantee against swelling, pain, and incipient inflammation.

Curd rolls are quick to make, relatively inexpensive, and relieve joint pain and inflammation.
