Thank you, Rossana, for the advice! I did not know it could aggravate as
well as help to heal. Thank you for the insight - I truly appreciate it.

I take an essential fatty acid tablet daily and also make sure I get a
balance of omega 6 and omega 3 in my diet - nuts and seeds and oily fish.
Essential fatty acids are often deficient in diet or there is an imbalance
of omega 6 to omega 3. Both go to make anti-inflammatory substances
(prostaglandins) and should help with joint inflammation. However, omega 6
also makes the inflammatory prostaglandins and so a balance is required.
Red meat and dairy can be inflammatory. There are many good nutrition
books
out there which should explain the essential fatty acids and give advice on
diets and supplements.
(I am currently studying nutrition as you can tell!)
