3. Joint Pain:
Too much iron in the blood can hurt the joints truly and its indications may show as joint pain. With iron levels staying high for a long while, it can trigger joint-related issues like osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. Osteoporosis and osteoarthritis doesn’t just affect older adults, but it can affect young adults and youngsters. A lot of the times joint pain is believed to be pain from exercising too hard.
That may be, but when you have high iron levels, the pain won’t go away. It doesn’t matter how much over-the-counter pain medicine you take or hot and cold therapies, the pain will come back. Joint pain can cause you to be unable to walk or do activities that you once loved to do. Once joint pain is felt and you notice it doesn’t go away, it’s best to seek medical attention. That way you won’t catch a joint disease.
