Misunderstanding 2: go to the drugstore to buy the treatment of rheumatism "medicine." These drugs are composed of hormones, vitamins and anti-inflammatory pain, the film contains drug ingredients is "a steroid anti-inflammatory pain cents + + 2 cents 2 cents vitamin." Although these drugs relieve pain role, but can not control the disease, the major side effects of long-term use. On the one hand, the side effects of hormones, on the other hand, anti-inflammatory pain stimuli on the stomach and kidney side effects.

Misunderstanding 3: listen to advertising, into the political arena Youyi trap not only been cheated of money, not to delay treatment. Another is with oral hormone or other Western so-called "Chinese medicine", this type of drug is more under the banner of "secret" or "patent and scientific research" under the cover of inconvenience to the public formula as an excuse to make the hospital self-made "Chinese medicine", which also vowed to ensure that non-Western medicine, no side-effects.
