LINCOLN, Neb. (RFD-TV) — Dr. Jeffrey Gold, President of the University of Nebraska, joined us on Rural Health Matters to share insights on managing joint pain caused by farm labor and daily chores.
In today’s segment, Dr. Gold explained what producers need to know about joint health, provided practical steps to reduce the risk of developing painful conditions, and offered strategies for those already experiencing joint pain. He also emphasized the importance of prevention, proper body mechanics, and knowing when to seek medical attention.
Dr. Gold encourages farmers to prioritize their health as much as their work — especially during the busy fall season.
