Here's a list of 5 Ways to Protect Your Joints in Cold Weather:

Warm Up Before Activities

Prioritize warming up your muscles and joints before any physical activity to prevent stiffness and injury.

Stay Active

Engage in low-impact exercises like walking, swimming, or cycling to improve blood flow and reduce joint stiffness.

Dress Warmly

Wear layered clothing to keep your body warm and maintain joint flexibility, adjusting layers as necessary for comfort.

Use Heat Therapy

Apply heating pads, soak in warm baths, or use heated pools to relieve joint pain and improve mobility.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration, which can exacerbate joint pain and stiffness during cold weather.
