Dr. Cristin Mathew is no longer with NASA Bone & Joint Specialists. To schedule at his new practice, please call 281.335.1111 Many people in the Houston, Texas, area suffer from joint pain. They may feel as though there is nothing more they can do to cure their pain. However, a pain-free life is sometimes as simple as adjusting your diet. NASA Bone & Joint Specialists understands that it can be overwhelming to figure out a diet that is joint-friendly, so we’ve listed out some of the top foods to avoid if you’re suffering from joint pain:

01. Eggs

02. Dairy

Dairy contains a high level of protein casein. This type of protein triggers inflammation and pain in the joints, and may even contribute to irritation around the joints. Some dairy products, such as butter, contain a high amount of saturated fat. This can also contribute to inflammation and joint pain. Soy milk and almond milk are some good substitutions for dairy products.

03. Processed Meats

Processed meats contain nitrites and purines. These chemicals increase inflammation and lead to joint pain. Meats such as hot dogs, corned beef, bacon, and sausages are all processed and should be avoided. Reach for lean, fresh cuts of meat instead.

04. Sugar

Sugar triggers the release of cytokines, which are inflammatory agents that can lead to joint pain. Sugar can also easily lead to weight gain. An increase in weight adds extra pressure on the joints and leads to joint pain. Avoid sugary foods such as candy, pastries, and pre-sweetened cereal.

05. Fried Foods

Fried foods are high in saturated fat and low in omega-3 fatty acids. This combination induces inflammation within the whole body and makes joint pain worse. Pass up the fried chicken and try eating it grilled or baked instead. You’ll get delicious flavor without irritating your joint pain.

06. Refined Grains

When grains are processed and refined, they lose most of their fiber, minerals, vitamins, and fatty acids. Refining grains depletes them of almost all the inflammation-reducing nutrients, which leads to joint pain. Joint pain can be frustrating, especially if you don’t know which foods are contributing to it. For those experience chronic joint pain, NASA Bone & Joint Specialists is here to help. Give us a call at (281) 333-5114.

Can you feel an enlarged prostate when pooping?

If the prostate is very enlarged, it could press on the rectum, making it more difficult to empty. But generally, the prostate doesn't get that large. Difficulty with bowel movements may be a perception that is due to sharing muscles that provide control of emptying your bladder and rectum.

The main cause of prostate enlargement is primarily a function of genetics and time. If there is family history of prostate enlargement it is more likely you will experience symptoms related to prostate enlargement. Those over 60 years old are more likely to experience symptoms related to prostate enlargement, though some can experience symptoms as early as their 40s. Usually prostate enlargement happens very gradually as you get older. The prostate is a gland that sits at the bottom of the bladder and wraps around the urethra. The urethra is like a tube, where urine exits through from the bladder to the outside of the body. The prostate glands are part of the male reproductive system. They produce portions of semen (ejaculate) and surround the ducts that carry semen into the urethra during orgasm/ejaculation.
