Thank you for sharing all of these videos on bone on bone for the knees so much. I’m watching, listening, water water water, and doing trying to avoid surgery, and getting stronger every day! You’re a God send! God bless!
I just had my right knee replaced. It was extremely knock kneed. It's straight now. My left leg feels like these exercises can stave off the 2nd knee replacement. This knee is straight. But, the replacement knee that was made straight is longer than the left. I'm almost thinking I should replace the left in the hopes the length will even out. At the moment, I use double shoe inserts in the shoe of the shorter side. I wonder if I should save my left knee or just replace it
I started doing backwards walking everyday for about 15-20 minutes during my walk. In just three days I was able to sleep without the horrible hip and knee pain I was having.
I'm a very active female veteran, but severe pain in both knees are slowing me down mentally, physically and spiritual. Have been referred for knee replacements in the future; but nothing has been scheduled yet! I swim, line dance, etc. I pray, hope, rub ointments, lose weight etc. plus your exercises will help to improve my knee health. Time to drink some water.❤

You have told me more about helping my knee than any doctor. All the want to do is to do knee replacement. I have good range of motion. My pain is bad when I go up and down stairs. I can’t stand long or walk more than a mile at a time. I am going to do these exercises and get better. I’m 75 and work 4 days a week. I’m not ready to give up. I was supposed to have surgery last year and my doctor had to cancel to have her baby. It was meant to be. Keep helping me.
Dear Sir - I have suffered many years with painful knees. I’m at the point of agreeing to knee surgery because of severe pain and the inability to walk without severe pain. Obviously from here videos my stretching has been too intense and probably the reason why I’m in a big huge orthopedic flare up. I do Aqua Spin (riding a bike in water) twice a week and I always do Deepwater aerobics once a week. I’m not sure if either of these are doing me more harm than good? I have to walk now with a cane and can’t walk too far at all. My knees are incredibly stiff painful. I have huge Baker’s cyst behind both knees both knees. I want to do one of your programs but I’m not sure which one I should do?Can you please advise me thank you so much you’ve actually given me a little bit of hope that maybe I can avoid total knee replacement. X-rays and MRIs dictate that I need knee replacement of both need ASAP. Appreciatively, Marilyn
Dr. David Middaugh: I have arthritis & a Baker cyst on my LEFT knee, When I go to the gym, I ride the stationary bikes & I peddle backwards. Does that help my knees, like walking backwards? Also, if I use the stair master, will that help my knees too?
Thank you for making this video, no physio or orthopedic has ever told about shifting load to gluts. Going to start with the exercise. Hope to get back in shape.
I have bone on bone and I’m wondering how the fluid can be regenerated; I was told by a rheumatologist that the synovial fluid will not come back. ? It’s embarrassing to try to walk in public and it embarrasses my husband. I will try these exercises.
I love your videos! I can only do these exercises twice a day due to my job so I hope that will be enough to improve my knee pain. I'm definitely going to do them hourly on my days off!
I'm hoping this can help me. My knees are pretty far gone. Since I am overweight I can't exercise, and the Dr I saw is obviously worried about his mortality rate. There are many reasons why I got in thus condition. Thank you for showing all these exercises! I have missed so much of life, it is very depressing!! Basically trapped inside my home.
Hey Mary, sorry to hear about your knees and weight. If you're more than 70 pounds overweight, your priority needs to be addressing your diet more than exercising. Not that you can't try exercise by any means, but you likely won't see as much improvement in your situation by focusing on exercise. Getting the extra weight off will make a significant improvement to your overall health and that is worth A LOT!!! Don't shy away from addressing your diet by focusing on your knee pain too much.
Mary /give the Darko Velcek protocol a try. He is an honest doctor and “out of the box” Promise it will stop you eating so much while replacing minerals. (which is the reason we eat veg ) Go girl !
Does anyone have suggestions of where to sit to do the tailgate swings? I don’t have anything that is that height, and I want to do this one often-so I need to figure out something in my home that is the correct height.
I have learned a lot from your videos that i didnt know for long time maybe because some doctors has led us to belive to do workouts or exercises and even stretching that hurts my knees.. i have to start unlearmg these to save my knee from surgery thank you so much for this!
Thank you doctor. Will do all the recommended exercises. I injured my right knee about 18 years ago because of not warming up before a run. It started swelling with water then which needed to be drained. I have a crackling in both my knees when I move them & I also have varicose veins. I realised that my knees are not really getting a good supply of blood as a result & I also dont drink much water which is going to change immediately. I do not want to go for an arthroscopy as I have heard people complain of pain during cold days. I can walk without pain but I cannot dance or run and a result I have back pain from not being able to exercise my back by dancing. What do you think the crackling sound of my knees mean? Should I go for an arthroscopy ?
Dr.Manuel,you have been extraordinarily helpful to me with my recovery. I do have one question that I am hoping you can give me an answer to. Ok,my bone on bone knee arthritis is definitely at a great spot for me to begin your exercise regimen. I'm currently learning the best nutrition plan right now and I am also working on my gluts daily but my knee is stuck straight. . In all honesty do you think that I have a chance at getting my leg to bend again? My other leg (left) is completely fine and healthy. I will continue to listen to your directions and continue with the exercises and learn what supplements are the best for me to be taking. P.S.) is collagen 1and2,,citrus fruits, and ginger along with shell fish with turmeric and ginger all good foods to be eating Thank you very much.
Hello sir you mentioned about swinging legs for bone on bone exercise but doctor suggested not to hang feet while sitting.... Which one should we follow. Please suggest
Thank you! I go for double knee shots every 90 days. The effects last only a couple weeks, max. It’s a difficult scenario to know if I dropped 20 pounds I would be pain free (I’m a yo-yo dieter who knows this), but the more weight I gain about my goal weight, the harder it is to walk. The more sedentary I get, the more I gain. I’m tired of starving myself periodically to lose weight. I’d rather be able to keep up consistent walking. I’m hoping these exercises truly work. I’m am anxious to check out the video on “toe exercises”, as I have thought for a long time that my “feet feel out of balance”. I don’t know how to describe it better.🤷🏻♀️But I feel like my toes are lifting up when my heel hits the ground instead of gripping the ground.
Hey Linda! Yes, toes lifting up during walking is usually a sign of not using the toe muscles enough for walking. And this will lead to knee pain over the long-term. "How To Fix Your Knee Pain By Strengthening Your Toes" ua-cam.com/video/K6LEVftDXyQ/v-deo.html
I had weight gain for other reasons. No gallbladder and no thyroid so unable to digest without digestive enzymes and even then…When I was diagnosed with fatty liver, I started the Keto diet. I lost about 30lbs in about six months, I was walking normally and doing 50 squats with my exercises until something triggered the baker cyst and the rest, 4 months ago. Getting TKR next Monday. I’m eating homemade keto ice cream now and it’s great!
Thank you for such a wonderful video. I am diagnosed with Petallo femoral syndrome I.e pain around knee cap. Now I feel pain on inner side of both knees while sleeping on my side and some times while walking.some tile I feel friction between two bones in my inner knees. Is it bone on bone or tibial shift?
You're welcome Neetika! Sorry to hear about your knee cap problem and inner knee pain too :-( It might be a tibial shift, for sure. That can contribute to a knee cap problem.

I also have severe coccyx pain sitting & chronic lumbar pain. I thank you . I just want to be able to sleep Thank you Nicola 💜
@@epmanualphysicaltherapy Thank you for taking the time to personally respond to me. I can tell you really care .. Maybe you have experienced pain in your life , yet for a reason you are helping thousands of people, From my heart to yours thank you 🥹🤗
Hey Andre! Great question! The glutes are important for depressurizing the knee joint. When the glutes engage properly, they allow the quads to relax thus reducing knee joint pressure. Glutes also help to keep the thigh bone from rotating inward (medially) which also adds to the pressure in the knee. Maintaining a long term decrease in pressure in the knee joint allows inflammation to go down and make a painful, bone on bone knee joint feel normal again. As long as there is no major loss of motion in the knee joint, then it's very possible to get back to feeling normal again.
Thank you so much for being so caring. I was advised, because I have one knee, bone on bone, for the need of a replacement in the future, I said, "No way, I am going to find excercises to heal. Started my first lot of excercises today. Thank you so much. I also started pilates a few weeks ago, in the hope that will help also. Will keep in touch regarding progress.🙂
I have knee, hip and spinal arthritis and will start these exercises today. I hadn't had knee pain in years, but thought I would "get healthy" and added walking to and from my post office. I live on a steep hill. I think tackling that hill is what caused the flare up! Thank you for these videos!
I am 66 years old, I just had my TKP on my right knee for the past 7 months. My knee is not 100% straight, but I think it's about maybe 80 to 85 per cent straight. Please advise. Thank you😊
I am very pleased I found you I have bone on bone and already I am feeling the difference Everything you explained was so easy to understand when it came to the different exercises I will uptake my water intake Thank You I will be working on my glute muscles

M 63 weight 85 my left knee pain i took ayurvedic falster put as my legs bend he did straight told m to keep straight and sleep 25 days I did now problem I cand bend my knee difficult to wlk pls advice som exercise how to bend my knee thanks
Hey Felcy! Sorry to hear you cannot bend your knees or walk right now :-( You should start with this video first: "The Top 3 Knee Arthritis Stretches" ua-cam.com/video/4yhRWOGRizc/v-deo.html
My 82 year old mother has been diagnosed to have osteoarthritis on her knee no cartillage anymore on her left. She couldn't bare the pain and she just keeps on her bed almost all day, she couldn't stretch straight her knees and always bended. Little movement could give her so much pain. Could this exercise still advisable to her? Thanks a lot! God bless!
Hmmmm Louwee Piamonte....that's a tough one. If she's been like this for more than a year, then she might be stuck like that indefinitely because of the changes in the joint. If she hasn't been like that for more than a year then she has a shot at improving. Although, she should go see a manual therapist to work on her knee joint flexibility. Joint, not muscle flexibility. It might allow her to feel good enough to get out of bed more.
For example…when I kneel…I sometimes have muscle painful hamstring cramping…this also happens if I were to lay on my stomach and reach back to grab my ankle/foot in a yoga class. Why is that happening ? and what can I do to prevent? It seems as if my quads are too tight.
Hey Mary Helen, sorry to hear about your hamstring cramping :-( This usually happens because of the same muscle imbalance that sets up the bone-on-bone knee pain - weak glutes and over-dominant quads. When this happens, the hamstrings also tend to become over-used like the quads. The problem is that the hamstrings are prone to cramping when over-used. So anything that involves bending your knee and hip back can set the cramping off. You've got to address the root muscle imbalance problem to prevent the painful hamstring cramping. Addressing the muscle imbalance also helps prevent so many other problems from worsening too! In case you're interested in our online program focused on addressing the root muscle imbalance, here is the link to learn more about it: www.epmanualphysicaltherapy.com/knee-health
Thank you doc. Just had an arthroscopy done. 3 weeks now. Surgeon removed a few tiny shattered bones. One was slightly bigger than the others and did some repair on the meniscus. He said I am bone on bone on my knee and need to do knee rreplacement.I stress when I even think of it. Arthroscopy I only considered because of the fragments of bone. Going to follow this exercise every day. Recovering slowly but getting some pains at the back of the knees occasionally. What can I do.?
Hey Anju, sorry to hear about your knee situation :-( Hopefully you can get the pressure off your knee and begin to heal so that you can avoid having that knee replacement the doctors are recommending. These exercises are a great starting point, but you'd be a good fit for our Knee Arthritis Recovery Program. You can learn more about it here: www.epmanualphysicaltherapy.com/knee-arthritis-recovery-program We've got more videos for knee arthritis (bone-on-bone) here as well: “Knee Arthritis Pain Help” ua-cam.com/play/PLJVIPiFvv1maa9YF-WmKLF7oI4VoczH8i.html

My doctor told me to get a stationary bike and I could not afford it so I got the foot peddler. After 2 weeks of peddling I can barely walk. I hope this works.

Thanks for sharing Many people do have some joint issues, it varies from person to person. We exercise moderately. We need sunlight and also a bit of walking and stretching to balance our emotional health.
I was looking for help and I think you provided it. I was recommended for double knee replacement, however, turns out I have allergies to all metals used in the replacements, including the metals in the cement. Waiting on metal tests from Germany for the alloys used in ceramic. I believe my pain has been reduced by doing these exercises. Thank you.
My doctor said the xrays show mild to moderate deterioration of the knees. But I don't believe him. My knees hurt extremely bad. Can't stand for more than ten minutes and the swelling all around and up and down from my knee is really bad. My knees ache really bad under the knee cap and when I am walking I look like I am hobbling. I can only walk slowly short distances and my knees kind of clunk or something and they literally give out with extreme sharp pain that bends me over where I am holding my breath while the pain happens and my toes get very very Charlie horses. What do you suggest? I am getting close to being chair bound. It is pretty scary and I am beyond exhausted from the pain. Please help?
Hey Andrea, sorry to hear about how flared up your knees are currently :-( Despite your severe pain and limitations, your doctor might be right. It's possible that your x-ray or MRI doesn't look severe even though your pain is severe. And really, that's good news because it means you can probably get the pain and inflammation down without having long-lasting or more permanent effects. You've got to first rest and calm down the irritation. Definitely get on crutches, a walker, or a cane so you can walk without putting as much pressure on your knees. You've also got to start fixing the muscle imbalance. In case you need it, here is our playlist of all our knee arthritis videos: “Knee Arthritis Pain Help” ua-cam.com/play/PLJVIPiFvv1maa9YF-WmKLF7oI4VoczH8i.html You really should consider our “Knee Arthritis Recovery Program” www.epmanualphysicaltherapy.com/knee-arthritis-recovery-program It's a comprehensive program to help people suffering from knee arthritis.

@@epmanualphysicaltherapy Thank you so much for your reply!!! I will do as you mentioned and do the exercises. I hope and pray it will work for me. Been praying for an answer. It has brought my activity and life down to near zero and being a woman in menopause with no gallbladder and history of Gerd and effects after a long bout with c difficillus, my weight will not go down. I will ask doctor for hormone test. Just a footnote. My knees started to get so bad I couldn't walk at all. I concluded it was due to my cholesterol pill ezetamine? The day it got the worst I decided to go off that pill after researching what it can do, and the next day swelling went down a bit and pain decreased, very noticeably. I could actually walk again. But they seem to be staying at that level now with periodic decrease and increase of swelling and pain. I have been resting my knees for a couple months now. Although that helps it is not going any where. Same as ever before. Since that all happened, I have noticed a circular bruise around the patella, spread fairly wide, half way around the knee on the inner side of the leg. Worried I am having internal bleeding. I really appreciate that you share this content. I cannot afford to pay for any progressive solutions. God bless you. Happy New Year!

Dear Sir -
I have suffered many years with painful knees. I’m at the point of agreeing to knee surgery because of severe pain and the inability to walk without severe pain. Obviously from here videos my stretching has been too intense and probably the reason why I’m in a big huge orthopedic flare up.
I do Aqua Spin (riding a bike in water) twice a week and I always do Deepwater aerobics once a week. I’m not sure if either of these are doing me more harm than good? I have to walk now with a cane and can’t walk too far at all. My knees are incredibly stiff painful. I have huge Baker’s cyst behind both knees both knees. I want to do one of your programs but I’m not sure which one I should do?Can you please advise me thank you so much you’ve actually given me a little bit of hope that maybe I can avoid total knee replacement. X-rays and MRIs dictate that I need knee replacement of both need ASAP. Appreciatively,

Dr. David Middaugh: I have arthritis & a Baker cyst on my LEFT knee, When I go to the gym, I ride the stationary bikes & I peddle backwards. Does that help my knees, like walking backwards? Also, if I use the stair master, will that help my knees too?
Thank you for making this video, no physio or orthopedic has ever told about shifting load to gluts. Going to start with the exercise. Hope to get back in shape.
I have bone on bone and I’m wondering how the fluid can be regenerated; I was told by a rheumatologist that the synovial fluid will not come back. ?
It’s embarrassing to try to walk in public and it embarrasses my husband.
I will try these exercises.
I love your videos! I can only do these exercises twice a day due to my job so I hope that will be enough to improve my knee pain. I'm definitely going to do them hourly on my days off!

Excellent advice as always! I can feel the difference when isolating the right muscles. Great Reminder to drink more water too!

Is there a reason you are doing glute muscles lying down, instead of standing and doing back leg raises for your glutes
I'm hoping this can help me. My knees are pretty far gone. Since I am overweight I can't exercise, and the Dr I saw is obviously worried about his mortality rate. There are many reasons why I got in thus condition. Thank you for showing all these exercises! I have missed so much of life, it is very depressing!! Basically trapped inside my home.
Hey Mary, sorry to hear about your knees and weight. If you're more than 70 pounds overweight, your priority needs to be addressing your diet more than exercising. Not that you can't try exercise by any means, but you likely won't see as much improvement in your situation by focusing on exercise. Getting the extra weight off will make a significant improvement to your overall health and that is worth A LOT!!! Don't shy away from addressing your diet by focusing on your knee pain too much.
Mary /give the Darko Velcek protocol a try. He is an honest doctor and “out of the box”
Promise it will stop you eating so much while replacing minerals. (which is the reason we eat veg )
Go girl !
Does anyone have suggestions of where to sit to do the tailgate swings? I don’t have anything that is that height, and I want to do this one often-so I need to figure out something in my home that is the correct height.
I have learned a lot from your videos that i didnt know for long time maybe because some doctors has led us to belive to do workouts or exercises and even stretching that hurts my knees.. i have to start unlearmg these to save my knee from surgery thank you so much for this!
You're welcome Chi Ocampo!!! We're happy to be a resource for practical, sound help for your knee arthritis!!!
You have helped me more than my HMO. Wish I could get my money back and give it to doctors like you and others online who have actually helped me.
Thank you doctor. Will do all the recommended exercises. I injured my right knee about 18 years ago because of not warming up before a run. It started swelling with water then which needed to be drained. I have a crackling in both my knees when I move them & I also have varicose veins. I realised that my knees are not really getting a good supply of blood as a result & I also dont drink much water which is going to change immediately. I do not want to go for an arthroscopy as I have heard people complain of pain during cold days. I can walk without pain but I cannot dance or run and a result I have back pain from not being able to exercise my back by dancing. What do you think the crackling sound of my knees mean? Should I go for an arthroscopy ?
Dr.Manuel,you have been extraordinarily helpful to me with my recovery. I do have one question that I am hoping you can give me an answer to. Ok,my bone on bone knee arthritis is definitely at a great spot for me to begin your exercise regimen. I'm currently learning the best nutrition plan right now and I am also working on my gluts daily but my knee is stuck straight. . In all honesty do you think that I have a chance at getting my leg to bend again? My other leg (left) is completely fine and healthy. I will continue to listen to your directions and continue with the exercises and learn what supplements are the best for me to be taking.
P.S.) is collagen 1and2,,citrus fruits, and ginger along with shell fish with turmeric and ginger all good foods to be eating
Thank you very much.
Hello sir you mentioned about swinging legs for bone on bone exercise but doctor suggested not to hang feet while sitting.... Which one should we follow. Please suggest
Thank you! I go for double knee shots every 90 days. The effects last only a couple weeks, max. It’s a difficult scenario to know if I dropped 20 pounds I would be pain free (I’m a yo-yo dieter who knows this), but the more weight I gain about my goal weight, the harder it is to walk. The more sedentary I get, the more I gain. I’m tired of starving myself periodically to lose weight. I’d rather be able to keep up consistent walking. I’m hoping these exercises truly work. I’m am anxious to check out the video on “toe exercises”, as I have thought for a long time that my “feet feel out of balance”. I don’t know how to describe it better.🤷🏻♀️But I feel like my toes are lifting up when my heel hits the ground instead of gripping the ground.
Hey Linda! Yes, toes lifting up during walking is usually a sign of not using the toe muscles enough for walking. And this will lead to knee pain over the long-term.

I had weight gain for other reasons. No gallbladder and no thyroid so unable to digest without digestive enzymes and even then…When I was diagnosed with fatty liver, I started the Keto diet. I lost about 30lbs in about six months, I was walking normally and doing 50 squats with my exercises until something triggered the baker cyst and the rest, 4 months ago. Getting TKR next Monday. I’m eating homemade keto ice cream now and it’s great!
What if you don't have a table like that to move your knees

Thank you for such a wonderful video. I am diagnosed with Petallo femoral syndrome I.e pain around knee cap. Now I feel pain on inner side of both knees while sleeping on my side and some times while walking.some tile I feel friction between two bones in my inner knees. Is it bone on bone or tibial shift?
You're welcome Neetika! Sorry to hear about your knee cap problem and inner knee pain too :-(
It might be a tibial shift, for sure. That can contribute to a knee cap problem.

Thank you for taking the time to personally respond to me.
I can tell you really care ..
Maybe you have experienced pain in your life , yet for a reason you are helping thousands of people,
From my heart to yours thank you 🥹🤗
Very good exercises. I tried them. But I couldn’t find any video on how to walk correctly using the glutes
What do the gluts do for your knees
How would it benefit the knee
Hey Andre! Great question! The glutes are important for depressurizing the knee joint. When the glutes engage properly, they allow the quads to relax thus reducing knee joint pressure. Glutes also help to keep the thigh bone from rotating inward (medially) which also adds to the pressure in the knee. Maintaining a long term decrease in pressure in the knee joint allows inflammation to go down and make a painful, bone on bone knee joint feel normal again. As long as there is no major loss of motion in the knee joint, then it's very possible to get back to feeling normal again.
I am also watching. What you are doing is very great. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for being so caring. I was advised, because I have one knee, bone on bone, for the need of a replacement in the future, I said, "No way, I am going to find excercises to heal. Started my first lot of excercises today. Thank you so much. I also started pilates a few weeks ago, in the hope that will help also. Will keep in touch regarding progress.🙂
Thank you so much for this video. Really great
You're welcome Moira!!!
I have knee, hip and spinal arthritis and will start these exercises today. I hadn't had knee pain in years, but thought I would "get healthy" and added walking to and from my post office. I live on a steep hill. I think tackling that hill is what caused the flare up! Thank you for these videos!
I am 66 years old, I just had my TKP on my right knee for the past 7 months. My knee is not 100% straight, but I think it's about maybe 80 to 85 per cent straight. Please advise. Thank you😊
Interesting--one of the few who correctly uses the words "lie" and "lay." Congratulations!!!
Hahaha! Things lay and people lie 😉
Great video! Could u please give advice for bone on bone shoulder osteoarthritis? Thanks 🙏
Hey bpnrthapar! That's a great suggestion for Dr. David. We'll make sure it gets added to the list! Thank you!
Besides exercise iwould recommend putting ice packs on your knee it has helped me a lot
Hey Kersi Mistry! That's awesome that you had relief using ice packs! It can definitely help for some people.

Osteophytes in both knees 😘 can u guide 🙏
Dear Sir, I'm bone on bone on my right knee but want to use my rowing machine, is that something that I can do or do you recommend not using it?
My 82 year old mother has been diagnosed to have osteoarthritis on her knee no cartillage anymore on her left. She couldn't bare the pain and she just keeps on her bed almost all day, she couldn't stretch straight her knees and always bended. Little movement could give her so much pain. Could this exercise still advisable to her? Thanks a lot! God bless!
Hmmmm Louwee Piamonte....that's a tough one. If she's been like this for more than a year, then she might be stuck like that indefinitely because of the changes in the joint. If she hasn't been like that for more than a year then she has a shot at improving. Although, she should go see a manual therapist to work on her knee joint flexibility. Joint, not muscle flexibility. It might allow her to feel good enough to get out of bed more.
For example…when I kneel…I sometimes have muscle painful hamstring cramping…this also happens if I were to lay on my stomach and reach back to grab my ankle/foot in a yoga class. Why is that happening ? and what can I do to prevent? It seems as if my quads are too tight.
Hey Mary Helen, sorry to hear about your hamstring cramping :-(
This usually happens because of the same muscle imbalance that sets up the bone-on-bone knee pain - weak glutes and over-dominant quads. When this happens, the hamstrings also tend to become over-used like the quads. The problem is that the hamstrings are prone to cramping when over-used. So anything that involves bending your knee and hip back can set the cramping off.
You've got to address the root muscle imbalance problem to prevent the painful hamstring cramping. Addressing the muscle imbalance also helps prevent so many other problems from worsening too!
In case you're interested in our online program focused on addressing the root muscle imbalance, here is the link to learn more about it:

Thank you doc. Just had an arthroscopy done. 3 weeks now. Surgeon removed a few tiny shattered bones. One was slightly bigger than the others and did some repair on the meniscus. He said I am bone on bone on my knee and need to do knee rreplacement.I stress when I even think of it. Arthroscopy I only considered because of the fragments of bone. Going to follow this exercise every day. Recovering slowly but getting some pains at the back of the knees occasionally. What can I do.?
Hey Anju, sorry to hear about your knee situation :-(
Hopefully you can get the pressure off your knee and begin to heal so that you can avoid having that knee replacement the doctors are recommending. These exercises are a great starting point, but you'd be a good fit for our Knee Arthritis Recovery Program.

Thank you for a lecture.
My doctor said the xrays show mild to moderate deterioration of the knees. But I don't believe him. My knees hurt extremely bad. Can't stand for more than ten minutes and the swelling all around and up and down from my knee is really bad. My knees ache really bad under the knee cap and when I am walking I look like I am hobbling. I can only walk slowly short distances and my knees kind of clunk or something and they literally give out with extreme sharp pain that bends me over where I am holding my breath while the pain happens and my toes get very very Charlie horses. What do you suggest? I am getting close to being chair bound. It is pretty scary and I am beyond exhausted from the pain. Please help?
Hey Andrea, sorry to hear about how flared up your knees are currently :-(
Despite your severe pain and limitations, your doctor might be right. It's possible that your x-ray or MRI doesn't look severe even though your pain is severe. And really, that's good news because it means you can probably get the pain and inflammation down without having long-lasting or more permanent effects. You've got to first rest and calm down the irritation. Definitely get on crutches, a walker, or a cane so you can walk without putting as much pressure on your knees. You've also got to start fixing the muscle imbalance.

@@epmanualphysicaltherapy Thank you so much for your reply!!! I will do as you mentioned and do the exercises. I hope and pray it will work for me. Been praying for an answer. It has brought my activity and life down to near zero and being a woman in menopause with no gallbladder and history of Gerd and effects after a long bout with c difficillus, my weight will not go down. I will ask doctor for hormone test. Just a footnote. My knees started to get so bad I couldn't walk at all. I concluded it was due to my cholesterol pill ezetamine? The day it got the worst I decided to go off that pill after researching what it can do, and the next day swelling went down a bit and pain decreased, very noticeably. I could actually walk again. But they seem to be staying at that level now with periodic decrease and increase of swelling and pain. I have been resting my knees for a couple months now. Although that helps it is not going any where. Same as ever before. Since that all happened, I have noticed a circular bruise around the patella, spread fairly wide, half way around the knee on the inner side of the leg. Worried I am having internal bleeding.
I really appreciate that you share this content. I cannot afford to pay for any progressive solutions. God bless you. Happy New Year!
