Re: Knee pain

You could hit your toes with a large hammer, the pain from the knee well be forgotten as the toes will hurt worse eliminating the knee pain

Re: Knee pain

I'm wondering if it could be the onset of arthritis Doc, Mr Mags has suffered knee pain for many years and now he finally has an appointment for a knee replacement in July.

Sounds exactly like mine. No problems at all with my right knee but the left gives me some right gip especially if I'm up and down ladders. I've taken to wearing a knee support during the day and treat the pain with Ibuprofen, co-codamol doesn't work and Diclofenac (now prescription only), though it works, can damage the heart, liver and kidneys if taken for a long time.

An X-ray didn't show up any problems which I thought strange as I broke my kneecap a few years ago after falling from a ladder so it looks like I'm just getting old and decrepit and suffering from a touch of arthritis

Re: Knee pain

I went into Poundland and spied two jars of Oriental Balm for £1 have been rubbing this into my knee front and back and it has really helped with the pain. So anyone out there suffering please try it you never know.

I don't think you're supposed to use a wire brush to rub it in so no thanks.
