It is common observation that the pains aggravates in the winters.
In winters: the first reason is there is increase in barometric pressure in the atmosphere.
Due to this there will be more nerve sensitivity and less blood circulation which leads to pain in winters.
The second cause of increase in pain is less activity in the summer, we tend to hold the joint in same position for a long time in order to prevent any movement which leads to pain.

Aim of every human being or every living being in this world is to be a happy soul.
Each step what we took is only striving to work achieving of happiness.
Each one of us have choosen our profession to earn our living and to become happy in our life.
There are lot many profession in this world ranging from basic salary to a salary where we can't even think of. Every individual is getting his work done in order to earn his living and stay happy in his life.
There are some jobs where people enjoy their work while in other they may not be enjoying their work.So what make a job a novel job or a profession a novel profession.
A profession or a job which consist of a feeling of content ness and feeling of if you have done something in your life is known as noble profession which help the individual also as well as the humanity also.
So right from the beginning teaching, medical, police scientist and social work are considered to be a profession which are novel these professional work for novel causes.
The professions in which core values are associated like to help someone to heal someone to give someone which can change their life are the part of noble profession.
Pain is a bast subject to discuss. There are various reasons for pain to cause pain which may range from physical to psychological psychosomatic also.

If we focus on the treatment of pains commonly the management of pain can be divided into two parts.
Conservative method and non-conservative method in conservative methods things like physiotherapy, electro therapy magnetic therapy acupuncture yoga color therapy magnet therapy dry needle therapy hijama acuepressure will come.
In second approach medicines homeopathy electrohomeo, modern medicine surgery ayurvedic medicines will come under this section.
But in my view a combined approach of conservative and non-conservative methods should be applied to control pain as in the second method there are chances that the drugs are chemical you use to treat your pains may harm you.
Goat is very common arthritis nowadays, this is due to accumulation of uric acid in your joints leading to crystals which generate pain in the muscles and in and around the joints.
In winters it aggravates the frequency of boats of the gout increases.
It also increases with certain proteins more intake and alcohol or beverages also.
Always always keep yourself away from meats and purein rich diet.
Causes: there are so many reason behind gout basically all the things which lead to compilation of uric acid crystals in your joint lead to goat.
There are chances that if you are having blood pressures medications you are having gout.
Symptoms: a person who is suffering from Gout always exhibit joint pain especially in lower limbs in initial stage. Classical symptom of gout is pain in great toe near PIP.
In later stages other joints may also involve like hip knee and the joints of hands also.
Diagnosis: uric acid test is the best diagnostic tool it is the indicator of increased uric acid in the blood.
Joint fluid test can be also done where doctor draw fluid from your joint and see unique acid crystals under the microscope

If you are still not able to control the pain and the symptoms and uric acid levels, please consult your nearest physician he will give you medication along with advice to join physiotherapy.
Heat or cold compression along with electrotherapy tense IFT are helpful in gout management.
Common medicine prescribed for gout are allopurinol fabustat and in pain killers they prescribe paracetamol indomethacin and celebrex etc.
Many a time a question arises in our mind that who is responsible for the poor/ critical condition of the physiotherapist in India?
Whether it is government policies, other fraternities in medical science or the physiotherapist itself. These are the three major reasons I can assume for the poor status of physiotherapist in India.
Physiotherapist always want a independent council in India but after so many efforts were failed.
In the past also such instances happened when physiotherapists were asked to join occupational rehabilitation council of India or other paramedical councils this time also government have played the same card and ask them to join a big umbrella underneath.
| Physiotherapist are unhappy in India |
Results into poor basis for physiotherapists no scope for promotion or growth in any of the sectors. The physiotherapist who joined government hospital on contract basis 15 years back are still on the contract there are no policies to make them permanent.
Now the physiotherapists are over is to get other employment or jobs in anywhere so they have to stay in those contractual job only for whole of the life.
So that is a big large dark future ahead for us.
Physiotherapist association in India are so poor that they don't have any vision or goal, though it is on paper.
Private physiotherapy colleges are mushrooming in India like anything, they don't exhibit the professionalism anywhere they don't teach well and also the services or the infrastructure required to run a physiotherapy college is not up to the mark.
No for some this is a lucrative business open up physiotherapy college and collect hard and money of the parents then provide poor education to the kids.
No no control on search education institutes also lead to bad name for physiotherapist.

Today's world and from the past we are getting the vibes always like if the physiotherapy is invasive or non-invasive.
This is a topic of long discussion and a clear cut decision can't be made on the basis of the points laid by both the view holders.
Physiotherapy basically deals in orthopedic problem cardiogenic problems and neurological problem apart from that a very small size of surgeries and rehabilitation is there, where physiotherapy can provide a great help.
Few day back I was discussing with a group of therapists if we should go for acupuncture dry needling or not.
One group of physiotherapists are against the use of acupuncture and needling in the due course of physiotherapy. According to them the physiotherapy should not have dry needling and acupuncture in the course as these are invasive techniques and according to them physiotherapy is completely a non-invasive procedure or therapy. Going into the basic definition of for physiotherapy it clearly says that it is non- invasive. And we should always be remain at non-invasive processes like our modalities by the use of heat Ray's, waves and currents. Manual therapy should be there as a inevitable part of physiotherapy.
What the second group of physiotherapist was in favor of use of invasive techniques like acupuncture dry needling also. This group claimed itself a progressive physiotherapist group. According to them physiotherapy should grow now and include these invasive techniques also in order to get quick relief from the pains like muscle pain myofibrilgia and trigger point related pains.
First duty of a physiotherapist is to get a patient relieved from the pain. And these therapies help a lot in relieving pain by giving immediate effect so there is no harm to take help of these inversive techniques to relieve the mankind from pain.
And they are in favor if there are new rules need to be created in medical practice they should be there.
