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)
1. Osteoarthritis
2. Gout
3. Rheumatoid Arthritis
4. Polymalagia Arthritis
5. Cervical myleopathy and spinal canal stenosis

                      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).


                          The Treatment

B. Treatment in herbal and traditional Chinese medicine

B.9. The herbal formulas in herbal and traditional Chinese medicine
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common worldwide public health problem especially in China, many RA formula has been used in the clinic and some of these TCM formulas have been existed over thousands of years in ancient China(388) with potential mechanisms such as inhibited osteoclast proliferation, suppressed fibroblast, decreased the expression of inflammatory cytokines, blocking signal pathways, etc.).
2. Keishibukuryogan
Keishibukuryogan, is a formul for the improvement of blood circulation may be a potential herbal formula used a treatment for reduced symptoms of RA, through its antioxidant and anti inflammatory effects on vascular function(389). As one of the most frequently used Kampo medicines in Japan, the herbal formula also has been used as biomarker protein (haptoglobin alpha 1 chain) for discriminating responders from non-responders in applying KBG for treatment of RA's patient(390).
Furthermore, application of Keishibukuryogan has shown to decreased tender joint count, swollen joint count and DAS(28) decreased significantly with CRP and inflammatory cytokines remained unchanged(391) in RA 's patient.

 Boswellia serrata used as incense in religious and cultural ceremonies and in medicine over thousands of year may be the potential source for treatment of RA through its abilities to inhibit proinflammatory cytokines and modulation of antioxidant status(380) as well as inhibition of TNF-α (a cell signaling protein (cytokine) involved in systemic inflammation) and nitric oxide (NO) production(381).
Dr. Ammon HP, said" autoimmune diseases - formation of oxygen radicals and proteases (for example elastase) play an important destructive role,......From the pharmacological properties of 
Boswellia serrata extracts and boswellic acids(BEs and BA), it is not surprising that positive effects of BEs in some chronic inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis,..(382).

Bromelain, a group of protein digesting enzymes  found in pineapples (Ananas comosus) used in traditional medicine as inflammatory agent and to treat pains, strains, and muscle aches and pains and ease back pain and chronic joint pain, skin diseases, etc.(467,376), through its the anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties may be the next potential target of pharmaceutical agent to reduce symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis(377). In the comparison for the effectiveness of cyclosporin A (5 mg/kg/day and 10 mg/kg/day orally); a mixture of enzymes containing pure substances (bromelain, trypsin, rutin) in the same ratio as in Phlogenzym (PHL, 150 mg/kg, twice daily, the mixture combined with cyclosporin A significantly inhibited both inflammation and destructive arthritis-associated changes, the Research Institute of Rheumatic Diseases suggested(378).
Furthermore, according to Dr. Bazzichi L and the research team at University of Pisa, bromelain may have a potential in activate autoreactive B cells induced the role of autoimmunity in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis, as self-perpetuing disorder(379).

11. Turmeric
Turmeric, a cooking spice used in many culture in South East Asian, especially in India, also has been used as herbal medicine over thousands of year(373). Curcumin (CM), a yellow hydrophobic polyphenol derived from the herb turmeric, reduced inappropriate inflammatory responses through expression in inhibiting cell proliferation and metastasis and downregulating various factors, including the inflammatory cytokines and pathway(372) in animal model.
In acute and chronic inflammation, including Rheumatoid Arthritis, curcumin showed to inhibit inflammatory cell proliferation, invasion, and angiogenesis through multiple molecular targets and mechanisms of action, such as down-regulation of inflammatory transcription factors, cytokines,......related to expression of RA(374).
Dr. Park C and the research team at the Dongeui University College of Oriental Medicine suggested that the effectiveness of curcumin for treatment of RA is due to its inhibited of prostaglandin E(2) through numeral pathways such as hyperplasia of the synovial fibroblasts(375).

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).

                      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).

B. Treatment in herbal and traditional Chinese medicine

B.8. Herbal and Traditional Chinese medicine 
Many herbal medicine have been found effectively for reduction of symptoms and treatment for patient with osteoarthritis(340), including
B.8.1. Individual herb
10. Green Tea
Green tea  has been a precious drink in traditional Chinese culture and used exceptional in socialization for more than 4000 thousand years. 
In mouse model, epigallocatechin 3-gallate (EGCG), a polyphenol present in green tea, may be potential use for prevention and treatment of RA by suppressing serum type-II collagen-specific immunoglobulin (Ig) IgG2a, T cell proliferation and relative frequencies of CD4 T cells,(inflammatory cytokines) through upregulation of the Nrf-2 antioxidant pathway in EGCG-mediated immunoregulation(369).
Dr. Riegsecker S and the research team at the University of Toledo, the effectiveness of epigallocatechin 3-gallate (EGCG) for treatment of RA is its ability in attenuation of the increased cytokine release and abnormally high levels of acute reactive proteins (ARPs) such as C-reactive protein (CRP), the a connecting link of inflammation in induced RA dysfunction(370). Furthermore, EGCG has been shown to be anti-inflammatory and protective in several studies using animal models of inflammatory arthritis, may be due to its function in reduced expression of inflammatory cytokines through its antioxidant and anti inflammatory properties(371), the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University suggested.
