Can fish bladder treat rheumatism?

Generally speaking, fish bladder may play an auxiliary role in improving symptoms when used as a nutritional supplement and the symptoms of rheumatism are mild. However, it cannot treat rheumatism if used as the primary treatment method or if the rheumatic condition is in an acute phase. If any abnormalities occur, prompt medical attention is recommended. Detailed analysis is as follows:

If rheumatism symptoms are mild, with only slight joint discomfort, moderate consumption of fish bladder to supplement proteins and other nutrients, combined with standard medical treatment, may assist in improving the condition, provided the body can effectively absorb the nutrients without experiencing adverse reactions.

If the rheumatism is in an acute phase, marked by obvious joint redness, swelling, and pain, relying solely on fish bladder for treatment while forgoing standard medication, or consuming excessive amounts of fish bladder leading to digestive issues such as indigestion, will not alleviate symptoms and may delay proper treatment, thereby worsening the condition.

Rheumatism patients should consider their individual conditions before consuming fish bladder. It must not be used as a substitute for medical treatment. Consumption should be moderated, and if symptoms fail to improve or worsen after eating fish bladder, timely medical consultation is necessary to adjust the treatment plan. Self-treatment with dietary remedies should be avoided to prevent delays in appropriate medical care.
