Meet Susan, a Sophia's Success Story: "My thumbs and knees hurt so much that I couldn’t open jars and I walked with a cane. After abdominal surgery, complicated with pneumonia, I thought I would never walk again. Most days my thumbs have zero pain! My knees are healed! No long walk with a cane and I am able to walk at a brisk pace. We have stopped the pneumonia in its tracks and are now working on improving my endurance. I am optimistic that despite turning 70 years old, I will be back walking and hiking for long distances in the near future."

If you experience even minor pain, consult a doctor immediately in order the prevent damage.
