Knee Injury Follow-up

Knee injury's can be the result of doing good healthy activities such as exercise,skiing, and dancing. The problem is often a balance issue not a over use or a weight issue as so many would have you believe all problems to stem from.
Some very simple balance stretches can make all the difference in how and what your knee can accomplish for years to come.

Knee Injury and Other Structural Problems

Dear, Dilapidated Geezer
Knee injuries are very common for all ages. Hyper extension is one of the most common injuries related to anyone who stands for long periods of time. I would recommend that you stand or sit with your weight more in the heel of your foot and slightly bend your knee putting more weight distribution through your heel, calf, and quad. This will help the injured knee to heal and prevent further injury.
Of course, if there is pain of any kind see your health care practioner immediately.
