KNEE PAIN/ARTHRITIS- SAY NO TO YOUR KNEE PAIN
It's the right time you consult a Physiotherapist!!
Do you have pain in your Knees??
Painkillers not working??
Cannot sit on ground, climb stairs or unable to walk??
Arthritis can cause pain and inflammation in any joint in your body, but it’s especially common in the knee joints.
Swelling, stiffness, and pain can prevent you from doing daily activities, including walking for long distances and going up and down stairs.
There are many different forms of arthritis. Each causes pain and discomfort, and in severe cases, disability.
The most common types are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, around 52.5 million adults in the U.S. were diagnosed with some form of arthritis each year from 2010 to 2012. It’s also a leading cause of disability, causing work limitations and a higher risk of fall and injury.
Recommendations:
If you’re walking a long distance, take breaks, let your knees rest.Instead of running on a treadmill, exercise on a bicycle or an elliptical to reduce strain on the joints.
It’s likely you’ll need to make a change.
Try water exercise: A lot of pool-based activities are helpful because they take some of the gravitational force off of your knees. Avoid stairs whenever possible.
Lose weight: Reducing your bodyweight helps to reduce the amount of strain on your joints.
