    Very informative and helpful! I am 64 - diagnosed in 1978 with RA - still have my own joints as bad as they are.. my RA is no longer active, but the damage remains - I am no longer on any conventional medications for pain!! My knees are what bother me the most (I am blessed, guys) however, my X-rays and MRI’s look horrific! You have helped me so much with these sets of exercises I can easily do to help alleviate the pain I’m in while ambulatory. Y’all are so helpful to peeps like me that need to be shown what can be done to help ourselves deal with a potentially disabling condition. I believe in y’all so much because you’ve helped me over the years and especially A PT that came with home Heathcare 3 yrs ago, showed me an exercise for a badly broken rotator cuff from a fall 3 yrs earlier. Since I’ve been doing what she told me, I can now get my arm up to wash my hair and to put a ponytail in! That’s miraculous to me! What y’all do is amazing and I’m so glad I came across y’all while looking for the leg braces with springs (I’m desperate for stability when walking)!!! Thank you! DMO

    Awesome video Doctors Bob and Brad. Exercise is indeed important to keep the muscles strong.
    I like these tips too
    For managing osteoarthritis:
    1. **Stay Active:** Engage in low-impact exercises to maintain joint flexibility and strength.
    2. **Manage Weight:** Maintain a healthy weight to reduce stress on weight-bearing joints.
    3. **Use Joint Protection Techniques:** Be mindful of joint movements and avoid excessive stress. Use assistive devices if needed.
    4. **Hot and Cold Therapy:** Apply heat or cold packs to ease pain and reduce inflammation.
    5. **Medications:** Consult with a healthcare professional for pain relief and anti-inflammatory medications if necessary.
    6. **Physical Therapy:** Work with a physical therapist to develop a tailored exercise program and improve joint function.
    7. **Balanced Diet:** Consume a well-balanced diet with anti-inflammatory foods like fruits, vegetables, and omega-3 fatty acids.
    8. **Joint Supplements:** Discuss with your healthcare provider about the potential benefits of supplements like glucosamine and chondroitin.
    Always consult with your healthcare team for personalized advice and treatment options.

    I’m 44 and have had knee issues since in my teens. I recently twisted my right knee getting out of the car. It was extremely painful and felt as though it was buckling when Id stand up. I did the maneuver where you grab the tibia and twist inward while applying your weight pressure. I did it a few of times. I felt a small pop then a larger with audible pop and felt immediate relief. It’s tender-more like a sore muscle now but WOW!!! That fixed my knee (at least the most recent episode). Thank you so much!!! You’ll never know how much you helped me!!! I was able to do my workout and have full mobility today!!!

    When you rotated the tibia, that made a lot of sense to me. Last year I fractured mine, and ended up having surgery. I've worked hard to get back to "normal," and I've done a pretty good job. But every so often I'll get a sharp pain in that knee when I'm walking, and I'll bet this is the problem. Also, I notice that I know have some knee valgus, and I bet that contributes. I'm trying to work on that, as well.

I remember that on the 22nd anniversary of our wedding, we planned to go to the famous old five-star restaurant on the second floor. I couldn't walk up the stairs and we ended up eating pizza down the street. This was a sad reality for a young woman in her early fifties. This should be our golden year. Most women our age feared that their husbands would run off with a younger, more lively woman. Well, Andrew has a woman who is more agile but she's actually two years older than me. to get arthritis solution here : tinyurl.com/y3t83cje?TruEer8 > ♥♥♥

    The first one is a bit difficult. If I use my hands to twist the tibia, my hand get tired easily. It takes some strength to do it. And then I discover a method. I use a resistance band (the thickest one) to help me. I wrap my leg with it. I make several turns to increase the gripping force. I leave one small loose end as a handle. I pull that handle so that the resistance band twist my tibia. Now I can do it without making my hand tired.
