Need advice on pain management and braces

Physical therapy and gentle, beginner Pilates have helped keep my joints in place better. Warm water usually helps with pain so I often take multiple baths a day.

Bauerfeind braces work great. Especially the ankle ones. Expensive though. Go find a good chiropractor, who will use gentle adjustment techniques and knows how to adjust extremities (ie, hands, feet, elbows) if you aren't feeling improvement within 3 visits, probably not a good chiropractor. Be careful, it might take a while to find a good one.
