    Kneeling down problem occurs with everyone if you sit in such a position that restricts the blood supply to your legs, it often happens to me. Joints do creak it doesn’t mean you have arthritis

    I had similar problems when I was in my 40's it's probably just circulation issues. As for the toes have you tried doing some exercises with them?

      No and i think that's why i have all these problems to be honest. I sit down for 18 hours a day at a computer no fresh air and no exercise.

    Hy john,

    ​You are acidic. There is too much acid in your body.  The first thing I would do is come off all processed sugars and I mean all.  Stop eating white flour, white sugar( of course), white rice, pasta, soda pops, etc.   Now, this is just the start.  If you are serious, link me back I can offer advice that will help but only if you are serious about making a lifestyle change.  Good luck.

    Based on what you described it is easy to tell your body is acidic.  You said you changed your diet drastically, that is a great start.  The acid in your systems affects your joints, bones, muscle, cells, oxygen level and just screws up the entire system.  When you say you have given up sugars, does that include all processed sugars?  I'm sure you are aware that certain starches convert into sugars when you ingest it and ferments in the stomach.

      You are funny.  How do you know you are not acidic, have you checked your PH balance level? If you are eating meat, processed sugar, dairy. etc then you are acidic..  Have you ever tried "Natural Factors - Double Strength Theracurmin 60 mg. - 60 Vegetarian Capsules" It sounds like you have problems with circulations and you should do a liver cleanse. The capsules are anti-inflammatory and anti-oxygen.  I won't go any further. You seem hesitant....lol

      Thank u ! I will definitely look for them . I live in south Africa so I might have to search them on the web and have them delivered to my hut ( just kidding dont really live in a hut just what everyone assumes when I say south Africa 😀wink I was hesitant coz doctor's give me such vague answers . And I have such pain in right ankle and wrist . I'll have to give something a shot . I have had blood tests for the pH and it's pretty low but I do eat everything I see (hide your cats dogs and valuables ) .
