• Knee Arthritis Help
Stiffness from knee arthritis is a symptom of worsening knee arthritis. It’s a good symptom that will tell you if you’re getting better or worse.
If you can improve your knee mobility and be less stiff, especially in the morning when you first wake up, then you have a better chance at keeping your knee arthritis under control.
Getting your knee arthritis under control is vital to reduce swelling and increase how much time you can tolerate on your feet without making knee arthritis worse.
It’s possible to completely get rid of knee stiffness from knee arthritis if you are not too severe in your condition. You can get back to being active around your home and even exercising without getting more stiff in your knees.
The trick is to fix the root of the problem. Our 28 Day Knee Health & Wellness Boost Program is a program that focuses on treating the root of knee arthritis.
It can help you achieve more knee flexibility and strength.
It's a 100% online and on-demand program for improving knee health. It's packed with exercises, advice and coaching from Dr. David.

I have been watching you probably since the beginning of the year and find your exercises very helpful. You are my go to person when I sense I need to pay attention to a certain body part. I am 62 and don't want to stop playing tennis so keep those videos coming out please!
At 72 I have Arthritis in my knees. I must subscribe to about 20 different physical therapists here on You tube. You by far have been the most help to me in my particular case. You give very detailed instructions while demonstrating exercises. Then you always back it up with what the exercise does to help the condition. Thank you so very much and have a great day!

I have liquid removed from my knee and got steroid shot and in 3 days liquid came again and getting worse again. I need to remove liquid again and my knee is swollen and painful and why steroid medicine doesn’t help? Doctor told I need knee replacement servers. Can I avoid it
Thank you Dr David for this advice. I spent 18 months in denial and my knee was a puffy mess. But now I have tried these exercises and also pay attention to how my left knee feels, not overdoing it. Much better! I used to have that problem of staggering out of bed and when standing up after sitting for a while. Now I dont have that anymore, and it is improving weekly. Thank you! ❤

Watching yr video always
New PT I went to suggested I do everything you say I shouldn't so I'm not going back...
Thanks David, i have meniscus tears, so exercises may help me. I won’t over do it that’s for sure. I didn’t realise how stiff my knees were, until I entered a pool with a deep step, I had to have help. Walking up the step was ok. Thanks, I really like your exercise. 😉

Hey there! You are very welcome! We really appreciate your kind words and support!
Thanks you Dr David i just joint and it is working keep those video coming
Hey Janet! We are glad to hear you enjoy our content and we will keep working to provide more and more content!
I over did it at the gym a couple weeks ago on the cardio strider and while I know I have ligament problems, I also have a lot of arthritis in my right knee. Since I started doing these arthritis exercises, my knee pain has gone from a 9 to a 3. Before I get out of bed in the morning I do these and what a difference. I also have been doing them several times a day. Thanks for these!
Hey Doug! Thank you for your feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you have seen a significant decrease in knee pain after doing the stretches on this video. It is not uncommon for your knee to get flared up from doing cardio, this usually occurs due to the natural tendency of the quads to take over and put excess pressure on the knee. The stretches in this video are a good start but you also need to spend some time strengthening the glutes so you could potentially improve your condition.
Here are some glute exercises for you:

I really appreciate all your videos you explain things in great detail and they are all very easy to follow along. I had to have my ligaments reconstructed in my ankle 242 years ago I now have bone on bone knee arthritis but lately I have been getting a lot of pain coming from my ankle up towards the knee sometimes it is very painful and feels like the bone is going to snap. Is there any excercises I could do to help relieve the pain
You are an absolute life saver for me. I tried insurance PT and it totally screwed me up. So I am back here doing stuff that works.

Good videos , thanks for your help..
Hey Mike, you are very welcome! Thank you for the kind words and support!
Thank you! I'm finally figuring out several things I have been doing incorrectly for years thanks to much of your advice. I absolutely cannot do repetitive activities day after day (exercise bike, walking) and much mix things up. I also think stretching too intensely is a problem. You have pointed out points that I no other PT has and it's helped me so much. Hopefully others will find you sooner than I did.
Hey Stefani! Glad you are here with us! Spread the word! And you are correct. Plus, fixing your muscle imbalances and properly managing your arthritis are crucial in helping you improve your symptoms. Here is a playlist with several videos on knee arthritis that might be helpful:

All the best!
That first one really was great!! The whole routine really loosed up my knees!
Hey there! We are so glad this routine was able to help your knees!
Thank you so much for making this information available for people that are having problems with their bodies as we are ageing etc. I especially appreciate when you explain why something should, or should not be done, as it makes it so much easier to follow when you understand why it should be avoided, or encouraged! I've had this diagnosis:
Moderate medial tibiofemoral compartment osteoarthritis. No appreciable subchondral insufficiency fracture.
Medial meniscal degeneration and extrusion with radial tear of the posterior horn.
Focal chondromalacia patella.
Moderate suprapatellar bursal effusion. Prominent suprapatellar plica.
and was worried that I would create problems in one area or another if I did exercises. But I will give this a go. Thank you again!
Hey Juanita, you are so welcome! We look forward to hearing an update about how these work for you!
Thankyou 🦘
Hi Louise, You are very welcome! 🙌 Thank you for being part of our community! 🌟
Thanks for this video Dr David I am Hina arthritic pationt from India .and waiting your video's for arthritis
Thank you very much. I got a few pops on the first exercise. It didn't hurt. I needed good exercises for my knee. Much appreciated.
Hey Donna, you are very welcome! Glad these exercises are working for you! Pops are okay as long as they do not cause pain.
I may try these, however, my knees never stiffen up, they just are very painful, more so when coming down steps. I go to rehab for balance after a stroke, and due to my back and sciatica issues. They actually help my knees at times, except for knee bends or slight squats.
Thank you dr. Can I do these streches with knee having pieces of cartlege?
Thank you so much, doing these stretches twice daily is making a huge difference. ( I have osteoarthritis).
Hey @ozzychick5709! We are so glad to hear that these stretches are making such a big difference for you!
Very detailed, informative, and you take pride in your profession. Thank you for the video Dr. Dave!

Hey Melissa, we are so happy to hear that we are able to help you! We appreciate you letting us know and would love to hear an update!
Hi again. Since I last commented on your post I was doing pretty well and felt things were going in the right direction. I had watched your cycling video too and had started using an indoor cycle a little and everything seemed to be going OK. Then last Thursday (5days ago) I did something which seems to have made matters much, much worse. I am in a lot of pain. I am hoping that if I can describe what I did, you might be able to give me an idea what happened and how I might address it.
So I was at work sitting at my desk. A colleague needed to use another chair in the office (normal type of adjustable office chair) which is normally used by another colleague. The chair had been set all the way down to its lowest point and she needed it higher. She could not move it. I tried to help her by pulling the lever and lifting the seat with my hands (she was not sitting on the chair) but it would not budge. Therefore, without thinking about whether it would be good for my knees, I sat on the chair, grasped the lever and pushed down hard with my feet against the floor while lifting the seat with my hands. It worked and the seat came up- but as it did I felt something nasty happen and was immediately in a lot of pain- much more than before, and I wouldn't say it has improved at all since. My mobility is now really down and I am in a lot of pain, especially during all the usual difficult situations (going downstairs, getting up and down off chairs and getting up after sitting for a while is pretty excruciating. Also my sleep is disrupted.
I would honestly welcome any advice you could give me. I am already referred to physio and muscular skeletal services here in UK but no appointments likely any time soon.
Sorry for such a long message. Kind regards,Melissa.

Hello Dr David. Where should one feel the stretch in stretch 1?
Do you have exercises for bow legs?
Ok I've been watching videos for inner knee pain. Your recommended exercises really help. Thank you. Well this morning I woke up and my knee feels like there is something in it to prevent it from moving. Like something stuck in the joint AND it's on the outside of the knee!!! Now what do I do???

Hi Dr David, how can one avoid doing arthritis surgery on the other leg after doing on one already?
Can I do these exercises on the knee that has a total knee replacement?
OMG - the common complaint (at 14:44) - that's me. Going to do these exercises!!!
This felt good and I have no stiffness but a meniscus tear.

Hi Doc David, when I kneel down on my right knee, I could feel like something is tearing apart and it hurts, what could be the reason for this ache? What remedy should I do? Please advise. Thanks.

Thank you. I’m feeling better from your stretching exercises. My PT exercises were just making it hurt more😢. I’m very active now I’m trying to rest a bit more and put my legs up.❤
Hello David, thank you for your reply. I was diagnosed with stage 4 on my rt knee. I have had pain while walking, but after doing a set of exercises especially for the knee. Like srengthening the muscles that control knee movements and legs, I have almost no more pain while walking, bending or doing sit ups. Thank you.
