Inflammation is actually good in small dozes but chronic inflammation needs to be investigated

Once their work is done in healing the effected parts, your inflammatory cells retreat and your immune system begins to relax again and your inflammation subsides, this is what should always happen, yes sometimes it takes longer period of time to heal the effected parts, that also is understandable.

Remember, your inflammatory cells do not always retreat, sometimes they keep attacking the tissue and thus your immune system remains in a state of constant stimulation, resulting in chronic inflammation.  The worrisome part is that you do not even come to know sometimes because most of the times there is no symptoms or indications to you if something is wrong inside the body until it has reached the chronic stage where you go again and again to the doctor.  The doctor may go in for hsCRP and other test to check for any inflammation in the body and try to find the cause of it.  Conventional doctors will prescribe medicine to subdue the inflammation and this may even make your symptoms of pain or visible symptoms go away for as long as you take the medicine or afterwards.  In case the symptoms of inflammation is still there, the goal is to provide medicine to reduce the pain, that is anti-inflammatory medicines and do lots of other tests in order to find the cause but most of the time, the cause is not known.  But if you identify what’s triggering your immune system to go on the attack, you can treat and even reverse chronic inflammation but such true cases are very rare but not impossible.  In modern medicine, the goal is to relieve the symptoms and it is rightly said that modern medicines only cure the symptoms but the CAUSE is the reason why autoimmune cases is increasing by leaps and bounds in recent years for which in spite of umpteen researches there are no cause cure in modern medicine for chronic diseases arthritis, hypothyroidism, psoriasis, and this is in spite of the fact that in most of the advanced countries, electronic record are maintained from the time a patient is brought to a hospital and those records are passed on to hospitals of that locality where the patients migrate to unlike earlier prehistoric period.

If you are diagnosed with auto immune disease, stop eating all processed foods, sugar, most carbohydrates, stop alcohol, fast food, beverages, cheese laden food and various other lifestyle food that are the main cause for modern day disease.  Stop taking stress, easier said than done but it will have to be done if you need relief.


If possible go for vegetarian organic food, try eating fruits only and fruits juices for 1 or 2 weeks and see the outcome, do regular exercise after consulting doctor.  You may find that your mood and energy is better after you take up the above change of lifestyle.
