Re: Painful Knee

I'm finding steroid injections into my arthritic knee make a huge difference it might be worth seeing if your GP offers those or can refer you to someone does. The ibuprofen gel works quite well too but has to be applied at right time I find. I have a warm shower then apply it, that seems to activate it much better than applying to cold skin.

Re: Painful Knee

Hey LQs
Sorry to hear about your pain
I'd get it checked out so you get it treated properly
And as regards your exercise,
cycling and swimming are both non weight-bearing exercise and I'm sure you could enjoy one or both of them as much as walking once you got used to it

funny you should mention that Rhi as I was thinking today that I will go to the gym but just swim and use the static cycle. Thanks for taking the time to comment xx
