Yes, exercise is good for your RA, lightly during a flair. Easy on your swollen joints. Yoga, palates, are both good programs for RA. You can go at your own pace and limitations. Push yourself only as far as your body is comfortable that day. RA is unpredictable, everyday is different. So only exercise to your bodys limit. Walking isd another good exercise. Bike riding also.

Yes! The practice of physical exercise is very beneficial for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Exercises that have low impact are recommended. Exercises that work on stretching can also assist in the conservation of the amplitude of the movements of the joints.

Say swimming, but I do not goes well,by the "force" that you do for swimming or diving.
I played football, and I had to leave.
Ahota I comfort myself with to be a coach, but gradually, the pains make me thinking about the withdrawal.
