5 Physiotherapy Tips To Help Manage Knee Pain
- Strengthening Exercises:
- Focus on exercises that strengthen the quadriceps, hamstrings, and calf muscles. Strong muscles around the knee provide better support and reduce stress on the joint. Examples include straight leg raises, hamstring curls, and calf raises.
- Low-Impact Activities:
- Low-impact exercises such as swimming, cycling, or using an elliptical cross trainer machine. These activities help maintain fitness and muscle strength without putting excessive strain on the knees.
- Stretching:
- Regularly stretch the muscles around the knee- quads, hamstrings and calves to maintain flexibility and reduce stiffness.
- Proper Footwear:
- Wear supportive shoes that provide good cushioning and stability. Avoid high heels and shoes with poor arch support, as they can exacerbate knee pain.
- Activity Modification:
- Avoid activities that cause pain or put excessive pressure on the knees, such as running on hard surfaces or deep squats. Instead, opt for knee-friendly activities and incorporate rest periods to prevent overuse injuries.
