• It is a common perception that the outside
  temperature and weather affects the joints pain.
  Generally, it can be seen that people experience
  more pain in joints during cold, rainy days.
  However, the research between these two is still
  not clear.
• The pressure of air i.e. barometric pressure can
  affect joints but humidity, temperature, and
  precipitation also play a role whose connection
  with the joint pain is still unclear.

• People with arthritis are sensitive to changes in
  pressure. Because when the cartilage which
  provides cushioning to the joints gets worn away
  the bones might pick up the changes in pressure.
• In high pressure, the tendons, muscles and any
  scar tissue either expand or contract and thus
  causes pain in the joints affected by arthritis.
• At Low temperatures, the fluid inside joints get
  thicker and felt stiffer.
• In cold weather, people tend to stay at home and
  do fewer activities. Thus inactive joints get
  stiff and painful.

• In a survey performed on 200 people suffering
  from osteoarthritis in the knee, it was found
  that the drop of 10 degree and corresponding fall
  in pressure, leads more pain in the joint.
• Another study shows that the pain and stiffness
  got worse with an increase in barometric pressure
  and humidity.
• While many scientists compared the joint pain
  patients record and the weather record over the
  last two years, and they dont find any pattern
  at all. It is still for research and would be
  continued until a proper result comes up.

• If the temperature drops, try to make yourself
  warm by wearing warm clothes and taking warm
  showers.
• You can try a paraffin bath in which you dip your
  hands and feet in, and then let the wax harden on
  your skin. The body absorbs the heat and gives
  relief in joints.
• Consult your doctor for the pain medications such
  as NSAIDs
• Do exercise regularly. Keeping a healthy weight
  and staying active can help you fight the
  symptoms.
• Dont do heavy, critical tasks unless they are
  necessary.
