Q: What kind of exercise are suitable to relief knee pain cause by osteoarthritis?
A: In addition to what has been posted above ,by ‘thelastp’ I would recommend doing Quadriceps exercises.
Quadriceps is the muscle in front of the thigh. Developing that muscle prevents disabilities due to osteo arthritis of the knee.
One such exercise is
1. Lie on a flat surface with face up and legs extended and together. With each leg do the following exercises
2. Raise the extended leg about 9 inches wit knee extended and count up to 10 seconds and lower. Repeat about 15 times.
Do the same with the other limb too.
Do these exercises at least once daily through out.
The progress of osteoarthritis cannot be completely arrested

A: Knee Pain Relief Information
EFT stands for Emotional Freedom Techniques and was originally developed to help people get beyond the “sting” of othersome memories, trauma, fear, grief and anger. Its emotional results were so impressive that it frequently reduced years of conventional psychotherapy to one or two sessions. Interestingly, even intense emotional issues sometimes vanish in minutes.
With these types of results, over 100,000 people throughout the world began using it and quickly noticed that physical pains, including knee pain, shoulder pain, back pain, headache and other pains, subsided along with the reduction of the emotional problems.

Q: What is the best knee pain relief?
A: After working unloading trucks for 6 months, my knees hurt so much I couldn’t climb the 1 flight of steps to my apartment. My cousin, who works in a nursery and spends all day kneeling and lifting trees and plants, turned me on to glucosamine sulfate.
Buy them at ay drug store. Glucosamine Sulfate. Not the fancier stuff with extra stuff in it.
Take 2 at night for a week.
Then take 1 a day for at least a month.
You’ll feel like a new person.
Whenever you have flare-ups in the future, take 1 a day until the pain stops – usually in a week.
It helps to rebuild the cartalige in your knees, and your bones are pressing on their natural cushion again, unstead of a flattened, compressed sponge, which creates friction on your bones.
Q: Knee pain relief????
My mother is 65 and weighs about 170 lbs. She suffers from knee pain on her right knee. She has seen arthritis doctors, and, so far, they have not been able to help her. I don’t think that she actually has arthritis.
I understand that if she looses some weight then maybe she’d get some relief but she can’t really do any exercise because of the pain. Its a vicious cycle.
Does anyone know of any OTC pain relief that works on this kind of pain? Or even a supplement that could help her?
A: did they do xrays of her knees? xrays would diagnose any arthritis that she may have.
lets see here, you could try some glucosamine/chondroitin/MSM supplements. that helps to relubricate the joints and decrease pain. theres a pain reliever out there called KneeRelief. It works pretty well for my knee pains (I have bad arthritis in my left knee from an injury as a child)
Have they tried cortisone shots in the knee? sometimes that helps to decrease pain.
It could be fluid on the knee like your other answer said but the knee would be swollen. Did she see an orthopedic doctor? I know u said she saw arthritis doctors, but an orthopedist may be able to help.

Q: Relief for knee pain no replacement surgery?
Had bypass surgery 9 years back. Knee replacement surgery is rule out. Any other treatment to cure pain?
A: You did not say what kind of pain, in the kneecap or in the knee joint behind the kneecap. The joint and ligaments there are one kind of pain and release and the kneecap is another. with a bad kneecap you usually have trouble walking and upstairs even more. If it is in the knee joint you usually have pain while standing or the leg wants to kind of turn on you. One of the ligaments is out of sync with the others and pulls more and gets you a pain when it comes down wrong. Here are both ways, take the one that sounds like what you have:
Knees:
While sitting wrap both hands around one leg right behind the knee. With your fingers find the ligaments behind the knee, two on the inside and two on the outside, only one of them is part way up the outside of your leg. (About one inch or less from the one found inside the knee) Press into them with a good amount of pressure and hold tight. Now relax, take a deep breath and exhale and don’t tense up any part of your body. After on minute slowly slide that foot forward until your leg is fully extended. Remove the pressure but rest your leg there for one minute longer.
Kneecap: (Use a chair that has no cross members on it.)
While sitting start with your leg out in front of you extended out to a comfortable length. Wrap your hands around it so you leave a open working area. Place your thumbs about two inches behind your knee and press into the top middle of your leg hard and hold. Relax. After 30 seconds, slowly slide that leg back until it is pulled up under the chair as far as you can make it go. Then release the pressure but hold your leg there for one minute longer.
Q: Best way to relief knee pain?
I have never had any knee problems before in my life. But last week my knee was a lil sore during my run but I just shrugged it off and finished. Afterwards my knee was really stiff and sore for about a day. It only hurts when I run but I can bike just fine. I’m pretty sure its just runners knee but how can I recover from this as soon as possible. It is very important that I get over this as soon as possible.
A: You want to be sure that your quadriceps are properly conditioned. If they aren’t strong enough, or if the strength isn’t evenly distributed (sides and middle) your patella might be pulling out of alignment, causing your pain. You can do some exercises to improve the strength distribution in your quads. You also want to make sure that your hamstrings are flexible. If not, they could be putting some stress on you knee. I would just add some stretching and strengthening to your routine, if not already there. If you already do this…try ice and NSAIDS to reduce inflammation after your run. If you still have pain after a couple weeks, I would consider a trip to your doctor. It could be something more serious.
Some starter exercises to strengthen your quads:
Front (middle): Try some leg lifts while on your back. Lift the leg so that it is perpendicular to the floor. Add an ankle weight if you feel comfortable. Be careful not to grip at your hip…that’ll cause other problems…
Inner Quad: Same same, just turn out your leg (toes pointing away from you) to get your inner thigh muscles.
Outer Quad: Same same again with your leg turned in (toes pointing toward you) to get at the muscles of your outer thigh.

Q: Pain relief following a knee replacement?
My sister cannot take most pain relief because of gastric problems. So what will she be offered following knee replacement surgery?
A: They might possibly give her a peripheral nerve block, or leave an epidural in after the surgery. Those things will only be left in for a few days max, though.
If she’s unable to take any of the big-gun analgesics, they might consider treating the gastric problem in order to allow for the pain relief meds. Like, proton pump inhibiters, anti-vomiting meds, whatever the problem is.
Just a few ideas there. You’ll have to discuss this with the surgeon to know for sure. I suggest you deal with it well in advance of the surgery so there are no surprises.

Q: Knee pain relief for runners?
I run about 3 days a week. My knee hurts most days but worse the day after a run day. On a scale of 1-10, its about a 6. It hurts underneath the knuckle part of the knee. About 4 or 5 years ago, the Army said the cartlidge was just wearing down and to deal with it. I can’t take anti-inflamatory drugs. Does anybody have any tricks or advise on how to minimize the damage/pain? I’m not going to quit running, though.
I run 10-12 miles a week right now. I’ve got a half marathon in 4 months and another 4 months after that. So I need to be increasing distance greatly. I know that I overpronate and am working of form correction. My legs are strong, since I have been running consistently for 12 years. The knee pain is just affecting my time and distance too much. My time has slowed so much, and most days I can’t get past 5 or 6 miles.
A: My knee hurts a lot too and I also run between 10-15 miles a week.
I have been taking glucosamine/condroitin (spelling is off, I know) and it seems to make my knee not hurt AS much in the past three months that I’ve been taking it- but it still hurts.
You might also look into a cho-pat support band to stabilize your kneecap.
Good luck. Knee pain SUCKS.
Q: Knee pain and relief?
I have a very sharp deep pain under my knee cap. It mainly hurts when I bend it or walk on it. It’s slightly tender to the touch but not swollen or bruised. I haven’t done anything that would really injury it. The only thing I can think of is I started running outside again. Yet the pain didn’t start untill a day and a half after my run. Any ideas what I did or how to relieve the pain? (Ibuprofen and Tylenol are no relief)
A: It could be patellar tendonitis. Try resting it and icing it for no more than twenty min. You can also buy bands for that type of pain at the drug store or walmart. If you can’t control the pain I would suggest seeing a doctor.
Q: Anyone have an idea for knee pain relief? Something I can do at home preferably.?
A: put ice on it probably,im not a docter
