Akhoza kulangiza zowonjezera zaumoyo zophatikizana monga glucosamine kapena chondroitin sulfate, zigawo ziwiri za cartilage. Omega-3 fatty acids, chowonjezera china choperekedwa kwa agalu omwe ali ndi osteoarthritis, ali ndi anti-inflammatory properties.

Ngakhale kuti zakudya zopatsa thanzi nthawi zambiri zimapezeka pa kauntala, siziyenera kuperekedwa kwa galu popanda kulembedwa ndi dokotala. Mankhwala onse ndi zowonjezera zingayambitse mavuto ndipo ziyenera kutengedwa moyang'aniridwa ndi achipatala.

Mankhwala ena omwe si achikhalidwe koma omwe angakhale opindulitsa ndi monga acupuncture, kutikita minofu, ndi laser therapy.
