How to prevent knee osteoarthritis?
Most treatments for knee osteoarthritis take months to several years to take effect. However, there are some preventive measures you can take to avoid further injury to your knee. Daily exercise, stretching exercises, weight training, and low-impact exercises are important for knee health. Swimming, walking, biking, gardening, playing sports, taking breaks from computers and television, and sleeping on a firm mattress are all beneficial. Your doctor can advise you on more details about these and other important factors that need to be addressed in your treatment plan. You should consult with your physician about the risks and benefits of these activities.
