Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are medical condition mostly caused by work related occupations and working environment, affecting patients’ muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and nerves and developing over time. A community sample of 73 females and 32 males aged 85 and over underwent a standardised examination at home. Musculoskeletal pain was reported by 57% of those interviewed. A major restriction of joint movement range was frequent in the shoulder but uncommon in other joints(1).

Types of Musculo-Skeletal disorders in elder(2)

2. Gout

                      Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid Arthritis is defined a chronic disorder as a result of inflammation, affecting mostly the flexible (synovial) joints and tissues and organs in the body. The disease affects more women than men and generally occurs after the ages of 40, causing diminished quality of life of many elders(1). According to CDC, Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) affects over 52 millions of adults in the US alone, including 294,000 children under age 18 with some form of arthritis or rheumatic conditions(2). Rheumatoid Arthritis can induced bone loss through elevating bone resorption without increasing bone formation(4). A cross-sectional population-based study of 1042 patients with rheumatoid arthritis showed that RA patients had an increased risk of death from various causes(4a).

Many herbal medicine have been found effectively for reduction of symptoms and treatment for patient with osteoarthritis(340), including
B.8.1. Individual herb
3. Willow bark
A herbal medicine used over thousands of years for treatment as an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic advocate in many culture(433, 350) and may be a potential agent for inhibition of pro inflammatory cytokines(351)(352) due to its phytochemical polyphenols(351).
Unfortunately, according to randomized double-blind controlled trials, willow bark extract showed no relevant efficacy in patients with OA and with RA(353).
In support to above, study conducted by the Columbia University showed that ethanolic extracts from willow bark with daily doses up to 240 mg salicin over periods of up to six weeks exhibits no significant improvement in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(354).

Ginger has been used internally and externally for over a thousand years in China to manage all types of arthritis symptoms, through its effective in compress therapy(431, 342) and is considered as  one of the pharmaceutical candidate for treatment of an autoimmune disease such as RA, particularly in elderly people(341). According to the King Faisal University, the effectiveness of ginger for treatment of RA probably due to its the anti-inflammatory/anti-oxidant activity in reduction of the progression of RA(344).
Furthermore combined treatment with ginger and stimulation at zusanli (ST 36) showed a significantly greater improvements in RA symptoms, laboratory outcomes, and gastrointestinal
symptom scores in comparison to anti-rheumatic drugs (ARDs), and acupoint stimulation at zusanli (ST 36) alone(343).
Dr. Hoffman T said," Ginger: an ancient remedy and modern miracle drug,.. (showed) "unclear" for treating rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, or joint and muscle pain)" (345), but Dr. Grzanna R and the research team at the RMG Biosciences, said,"ginger modulates biochemical pathways activated in chronic inflammation"(346).

An ancient form of medical technique originated from India, is become a popular multimodal mind-body exercise in the Western world for promoted flexibility, strength, endurance, and balance(412, 335). According to university research conducted at a medical clinic, Yoga significantly decreased Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) disability index, decreased perception of pain and depression, and improved balance in women with rheumatoid arthritis(336) and hand grip strength in normal persons and in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(337) as well as inducing positive changes in psychological or physiological outcomes(338).
But in the review of Eight RCTs with a total of 559 subjects, Dr. Cramer H and the research team at the Klinik für Naturheilkunde und Integrative Medizin, Knappschafts-Krankenhaus said" ,...there was very low evidence (of yoga) for effects on pain and disability,.... only weak recommendations can be made for the ancillary use of yoga in the management of....... RA at this point"(339).

According to the review of 4 trials including 206 participants, tai chi showed a statistically significant and clinically important improvements in ankle plantar flexion, benefits on lower extremity range of motion, in particular ankle range of motion, for people with RA but had no alternation of outcomes of disease activity(332).  Contract to the study, Dr Lee MS and the research team at the Universities of Exeter & Plymouth, said, " Tai chi reported some positive findings for tai chi on disability index, quality of life, depression and mood for RA patients, (but) did not demonstrate effectiveness on pain reduction(333).
Other study in the assessment of patient with RA suggested that tai chi should be sued for treatment of  people with a chronic debilitating disease such as RA due to its potential for physical and psychological improvements(334).

In comparison to patient of RA with no treatment in the short term, hydrotherapy has a positive role in reducing pain and improving the health status of RA treated patients, through reducing pain, joint tenderness, mood and tension symptoms, and increasing grip strength(329), in knee range of movement (women only) as well as maintaining improvement in emotional and psychological state(330).
Oligomineral, homeothermic, low radioactive water hydrotherapy exhibited significant improvement of functional capacity, quality of life and positive influence on disease activity in the patients with RA, an study from Serbian suggested.
