Stretch, drink plenty of water, topical pain relief, chiropractics (depending) & massage therapy. Supplement options (check with doc first): Tumeric, Vitamin D Magnesium, Omega 3s.

Voltaren gel helps a lot. It doesn’t absorb into the skin well so you have to let it dry for a few min. I also use a heated blanket during the day at my desk, and targeted heating pads on my bad joints at night. The heat helps keep me from getting stiff
