It is possible to heal your bone-on-bone knee joint cartilage and get back to being healthy, active, and mobile again!
There is a lot that doctors don’t know to tell you about how knee cartilage healing works. And it’s not completely their fault - they don’t get this type of specialist knowledge in their education.
Here are videos showing you how to take pressure off your knee joint to allow your “bone-on-bone” knee cartilage to heal:

I want to share a caution with your viewers. When my knee pain began, I saw an orthopedic guy who showed me my Xray and said I was "bone on bone" and would need a knee replacement as soon as possible. I went for a second opinion at a clinic which specializes in dealing with athletes. The Xray taken there was much clearer and, while it showed a reduction in cartilege, was not showing bone on bone. in fact, the docs there told me that, with exercise (recumbent bike or swimming), I might never need a knee replacement. So get a second opinion!
YAYYYYYYY!!!!!!
This is fantastic to hear Una Boyle!!!!
A second opinion is soooo worth it!!! We hope your knee pain goes away fast and that you get back to normal activities as soon as possible!
Yes, your caution is excellent advice. I visited an orthopedic guy after I'd twisted my knees and was in incredible pain. He did the X-rays and advised knee replacement surgery after I lost some weight. I saw my chiropractor instead and he helped a lot. My regular doc advised physical therapy but because of my job situation (long hours and long commute leaving me barely enough time to sleep plus no back-up for my desk) I could not do the therapy. This was years ago and now that I have time I've found things online like this amazing fellow who cheerfully shares valuable information.
I have used several of the recommended exercises and methods for using my body and can now often use the stairs pain free. I'm still slow because I want to be sure of my steps, but the recommendations really do work amazingly. I think come summer, I'll be able to get on my bike again. What fun that will be! Thank you, David, for sharing
Been there, done that 👍👍
@@kathyclark3168, please share/elaborate more ?
What clinic should I look for? Sport Medecine doctor?
Never before have I heard a medical professional give such a thorough, understandable explanation of the pathology of ANYTHING and the healing process. Thank you so much.
You’re welcome Buela!!! We’re happy to share as easy as we can make it to understand for everyone!
I have bone on bone and you have given me hope of avoiding surgery. You are awesome. Love your show.
We're glad to have given you hope in avoiding surgery Marly Marco!!! Thanks for the kind words :-)
Hey @@timyatcak3292!!!
Maybe it would be better for you to research answers on another channel. It sounds like you already know what you're looking for and you're not open to learning from our channel anway. You'll probably find answers that better suit what you're looking for somewhere else. We encourage you to unsubscribe from this channel if you haven't already. That way we don't waste your time with information you're not interested in. 🙂
@@timyatcak3292 Unable to walk without moving like I had been drinking .My knees were so stiff and sore I planned every move b/c of the pain it would cause. I learned from Dr. Dave an alternative to surgery I learned that maybe I had a muscle imbalance so I did exercises to correct the problem .It helped. You have to put in the work no one can do it for you I'm grateful that this Dr. cares enough to share his information I'm not 100% yet( I'm working on that)but alot better than before and I'm so thankful. Sometimes its hard to be positive when you're in pain I hope you find relief if thats the case GOD Bless
This guy has such a lovely soothing voice and way of explaining things. I feels like anything is possible ☺️
As crazy as it sounds, your advice on muscle related back and knee problems have been offering such huge relief after all the gloom and doom medical opinions my doctors have given me until now.
Thanks always…
When I had bursitis which I had since age 20. Two seconds after he saw. He said I needed surgery I told him no he wasn't interested in me and left. My physical therapist told me much of pain was originating from back. Thank you because the keloid I would get would cause greater problems because I had gall bladder surgery and the twisting of keloid inside gives me excruciating pain for last forty years. My physical therapist is amazing like 👍 you.
You have to be your own advocate when it come to health!
Agreed Cherl!!! You're the your best advocate!!!
I could not be more happy to have found this video. So hopeful and encouraging! Thank you.
Thank you for filling in the gaps of my knowledge I have followed you on numerous videos as I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis. You are a credit to the human race I thank you for your help and support you rock…
This is one of your BEST videos. You explain things very well and have given me hope. I appreciate your work very much. Thank you!
My friend I am shocked at your level of knowledge. One can't put a price on this kind of information. I hope you know how much you're truly appreciated.
Thank you JB Gant!!!

What can be done for bone on bone in trochlea patella area
I’m so happy to have ‘discovered’ you ! I have close to bone on bone and meniscus tears in both knees as well as three ganglions in my left knee. The pain has been excruciating. I don’t want knee replacements and am thrilled with the information you are imparting. Thank you
You are a blessing and I am so thankful for you!
This is a fantastic explanation of knee cartilage healing, which reconciles very closely with my experiences over the past 4 years: I suffered what I would describe as a devastating full thickness cartilage tear in my left knee, when I was out for what should have been a 40-minute fast run in Jan 2018. I was halfway round the 10Kish loop when it felt like a shotgun had gone off inside my knee; instant sharp pain and instability, causing me to pull up like a sprinter whose hamstrings have torn within yards of the blocks. It was depressing, but I threw myself into all kinds of rehab exercises - stationary bike, trampette, cross-trainer and more - but it has taken a very long time for me to get to a position where I can now run frequently with only minor discomfort during runs and with rapid recovery between them. Two of the best pieces of advice I can give is (a) consider running in Crocs (or equivalent) instead of over-priced running shoes that create random instability and (b) do not underestimate the contributions of your muscles and tendons to the discomfort/arthritic feelings in your knees. One of the best purchases I have made, is a £40 electric massager (slightly club-like in appearance), which I applied to my quads and associated tendons daily or more for a period of about 9 months (Jan-Sept 2021): this helped me to break down adhesions that, in hindsight, had probably built up over decades and were contributing to imbalances, and to effectively ‘iron out’ my faulty legs! The upshot is that I am more attuned than ever before, to relative tensions of muscles and tendons, and can operate a running schedule that I would not have thought possible a few years ago. Stay strong.
Wow, great story Dr. Dan! That's fantastic that your back to running despite having suffered a full thickness cartilage tear in your left knee. And you did it naturally without relying on medications or surgery! FANTASTIC!!!
This is almost exactly what happened to me a couple years ago and my knee joint is a lot better now, except I haven't been able to recover the muscle mass I've lost on my leg and my quads are basically atrophied. I did 6+ months of physio with little to no improvements (was too painful) and funny enough the only thing that helped my joint pain was stopping exercising all together (had a lot of work at the time so I didn't have time to exercise). Now I've been back to the gym for about half a year, my joint pain is hardly an issue in my everyday life, however the muscles are not activating and doing true quad focused workouts is indeed too taxing on my joint. It seems no matter what I do, the joint pain only comes back when I have to workout my quads and it's keeping my legs very asymmetrical. Have you been able to keep/recover the muscle on your leg? I feel like this is never gonna happen for me again. It's been 2 years for me and I'm still scared to go back to running in fear I cause further damage to my joint. I miss it.
@@lou4169 hi Lou, I’m so sorry to hear that you are still suffering - and so glad that something I contributed has resonated with you. Clearly, I’m not abreast of your specific circumstances, but am pleased to say that I have more muscle mass in my quads than ever before - at the age of 47. Spinning classes have been hugely helpful in this regard, with high resistances where possible (NB: I have a history of long distance cycle committing though), and in the past year I have performed step-ups on a 28 cm step with a 10 kg weighted vest on, and 6 kg kettle bells in each hand - which has developed not only my quads but also my calves, in a way that has made me far more robust. In the past month, I have started to run in barefoot shoes: my hip and lower back musculature tighten up after doing short off-road sessions (~10-15 mins), and I’m hoping that I will adapt in this regard over time - but the reduced aggravation to my knees has really surprised me. The change in mechanics is well established in the literature, but this firsthand experience has been a real eye-opener for me. However, only time will tell on this one - I could be deluding myself - so please watch this space…😌
I use to wear Crocks every day all day long until I develop Plantar fasciitis! My Podiatrist said it was from the Crocks cuz Crocks do not have arch support. I’ve stopped using Crocks since then & I no longer have Plantar fasciitis!
why don’t they teach this important knowledge in high school 😅
God bless you young man for your pure intention for people to heal! Both my knees hurt from age 52. Been to doctors but such a waste of money and time! And RUclips is full of doctors who just sell you stuff that don't work. It's hard not to to be active. You are are ray of sunshine! I highly endorse you! Pray you stay the same. Icing on the cake is your voice is radio/TV quality 😊.
Thank you so much for doing what you do and making the contribution you make...
I had an injury where patella was almost dislocated and surgery removed all my cartilage in one knee. I have had an infusion to try to get cartilage tissue to grow back and it failed. I will look at your videos to strengthen my muscles around the knee to help with the bone on bone pain when standing from sitting and walking. My leg had a modified surgery done and it has remained swollen and my leg will not completely straighten for many years. I don't want to have a knee replacement, but may have to. Thank you Dr. David for your videos and your instruction. You don't waste your viewer's time and get right to the subject as to how to heal/improve the body and joint.
This is the most thorough explanation of the knee anatomy and re-hab I have come across. I am an exercise physiologist (second menisectomy on the left knee) a little more than two weeks ago My ortho hinted at knee replacement to which I replied..Nope...not doing that.....I know there is a protocol that can be followed to lessen the discomfort and pain associated with this kind of surgery. I knew folks like you existed..glad I found you.. (yaaay..RUclips) I am very active (I teach group exercise classes and work out 4 plus times per week)..not giving up my active lifestyle. Following your videos for glute strength...awesome ....right on the money, Even my physical therapist is a bit surprised with state of my knee right now (she says,,my condition is really good for someone two weeks out of surgery. Thank you sir! (P.S. I did some pre-hab. therapy before the surgery..it absolutely helped...for those considering the surgery) Take Care!
Finally an honest doctor ❤thank you so much
Very informative I am going to do all I can to get healthy muscles and knees! Thank you for your help! 😊
That comment was very helpful me to work on my knee pain , I thank so much doctor.
Thank you - thank you - you’ve been a Godsend - after 3 opinions - I was consistently diagnosed bone on bone - TKR for both knees -
- I’ve since cancelled surgery . Had to stay off running - ridiculously painful. But after a super great chiropractor- a good - massages - and You! I know I can heal and beat this. Thank you so much. I only wish I lived in TX as opposed to FLorida. You are amazing!
I am so happy to hear you talk.
Thanks for listening Relax33!! Please let us know if this is helpful for you.
Oh my goodness you are simply the best i am going to try your recommendation
This was so well explained!! Makes so much sense. Thank you so very much. Going to look at the exercises.
You're welcome Kym George!!! Please let us know how it goes trying the exercises out. 😀
Thanks for your tips and advice, I am currently with out healthcare insurance and starting to develop knee pain. Your site and Bob and Brad has been very helpful.
Hey PJ! It’s great to hear that you’re finding help here on RUclips :-)
Ask questions if you have them!
Best explanation ever👏👏why can’t all professional be that good?
Thank you Lena!!!
Thank you Dr. David
Much Gratitude, God bless you. ❤🎉❤😊
Thank you so much for all the info, I learn so much, I have osteoarthritis didn’t even know about it until I had an injury on my knee playing tennis and I went to see a sports doctor that’s when I found out about it and he said it’s not bone on bone but sent me to physical therapy it is amazing! Within 8 weeks I was playing tennis and hiking again.
You're welcome MB Patterson!!! We're glad to hear that you benefitted from physical therapy and you're back to playing tennis again!!!
Doctor, you are super the way you are explaining to lay people.I love listening to you You give us hope❤
Hey @Sunshine-tm9fs! Thank you so much!
Thank you you are making a lot of sense 🌹
You're welcome Michele!!!
I have severe knee OA and I've watched at least several hundreds of hours on the topic and this is by far the best I have heard... Now off to the strength videos....
Thank you SmokeRing Red!!! Please let us know how it goes trying out the strengthing! 😀
This gives me hope. After 8 doctors telling me to replace the knee, I finally found No 9 who at least gave me the standard cortisone injections and antibiotics regime. Thankfully, this reduced the symptoms dramatically, swollen knee, muscular pain, knee pain, etc., but did not address the cause. Even No 9 said they would eventually have to replace it. All of them looked at me like I was crazy or stupid when I suggested that; "Hey, before we go cutting things out, why not try alternative treatments first?" Anyway, I have been reasonably OK for the past 6 years, but now the pain and swelling has come back with a vengeance. Going to view the rest of your videos and apply your suggestions. Thanks again for the inspiration.
Hey Mike! This isn't surprising...you'll be hard-pressed each time you step into a surgeon's office. But the reality is that they just don't see many people go against the grain successfully. The information we put out on this channel is NOT mainstream for sure!
Here's a playlist that might help:

Best of luck to you on improving your knee health!!!
@@epmanualphysicaltherapy Cheers David. Much appreciated.
Brilliant. Subscribed! It took me a long, long, long, long time of figuring things out that 'healing a knee' requires more offloading that you might imagine, and then if you aren't 'realigning' via 'proper muscle development', then you'll just go back to the same old. It's quite a trick, called, not being lazy, that it takes to heal these precious temples of ours. But allopathy isn't the best solution probably, considering that it's like 26 or something like that ligaments and tendons that get scarred during a knee replacement. And most people report that it goes back to what it was, most likely because they're not doing the single leg squats, calf raises, tibiales raises, polloquin step ups, toe exercises.
Thank you for sharing. Wish I could find a good
This was just awesome information and very very helpful. Many thanks.
You're welcome Asit!!! We're glad to help!!!!
Very useful info❤

Great description......makes perfect sense......thank you!
Hey there, you are so welcome! Thank you for the kind words!
Hi Dr, thank you for your very informative videos which have given me hope in my situation. To cut a long story short, my x-ray 8 months ago showed that the gap at my medial meniscus was down to 1mm, whereas at the lateral side it was 7mm (which the orthopedic surgeon said was still normal). He recommended hyaluronic acid injection which I did not take up. Instead I went to a physiotherapist and underwent a series of 15 sessions over 2 months. While it improved my situation significantly (I was able to walk without pain after that) it also resulted in swelling on my knee joint area. I have subsequently had the fluid inside my knee removed at another orthopedic surgeon, but my knee pain while walking has come back, sometimes very bad, sometimes mild (I'm not sure why the variation). Now, in addition to pain at the knee joint while walking, I have pain on the outside of my thigh, and it swells at the point where it joins the knee (the tendon?). What should I do? Appreciate your advice. Thank you very much.
This was SOOOO helpful to me. I had a TPF surgery back in January (7 months ago) and it's been a very slow and bumpy road to recovery. I knew instinctually that my knee pain was related to muscle imbalance and particularly to my glutes. Your videos have helped me so much and your explanations are so easy to understand. Thank you so much for all that you do!!
You're welcome Susan!!! We're so glad to hear that our videos have helped you!
You are brilliant.
I also have bone on bone and don't want another replacement surgery.
Thank you and God bless you for the hope.
Hey Toni!!! Sorry to hear that you are bone on bone in your knee 😞
We sincerely hope that you can heal enough to feel great in your knee. God bless you too.
U r a great doctor,I was hopeless,but because of ur videos I hv got hope
Thank you Abida!!! We're so glad you have hope now!
I just had a scope of my meniscus done. Extensive degenerative fraying cleaned up. 5 weeks out and still very painful in spots. Is there help? Will this pain go away? Love all this information! So much to learn!
Wish I could find a physical therapy as knowledgeable in my area
I love your videos I have problems with my knees. You are very helpful
Thank you Josefina!!! We're happy to help!!!
Great knowledge! Perhaps you would focus some upon the hip joints and muscles? I assume the same principles apply?
I stretch my knees like I did in high school soccer
Kneel on soft mat and sit back slowly Eliminating pain I have at time while stretching further every time
About 13 years ago I was experiencing severe swelling & pain in both knees after only hiking for one hour. I had arthroscopic surgery on left one and was told that I was a prime candidate for TKR on both knees as the cartilage was worn quite badly. I suspect the root cause is due to being bow legged.
Shortly after the surgery I did two things that have given me a new lease on being active.
#1. PRP treaments
#2 cycling
This past summer I turned 75 and completed 18 full day hikes and countless 2 hour hikes with next to nothing for pain or swelling. I also do a lot of cycling with some rides up to 100k.
Was it the cycling, PRP or both?
Feeling great.
Great story Blaine! We're so happy you've had this success with your knees. Full day hikes and regular 2 hour bike rides!!! It's hard to say which specific thing helped you most, but it's safe to say you had a great combination of knee treatments. Congratulations on keeping healthy, mobile and active!!!
This is so empowering. Thank you for your amazing story .God bless you with health and protection.
Thank you very much Sir

When I was a youth ; As I was entering a public city bus . I saw an elderly lady stepping slowly off the bus. I step back & let her get off the bus as I waited she continue to apologize for being so slow getting off the bus in which I said ; "take your time" as she began going down the stairs; she said to me " Young Lady whatever you do don't ever let them operate on your knees. To this day I always remember that . I enjoy your commentaries . I been told I need an operation but all the people I know that had this operations are living a miserable live .Thanking you for your detailed information.
It troubles me when I read how our body heals itself but the Doctors are always ready to cut away . You provide good information about prevention & how we can heal oneself. Keep up the good work
That's an interesting memory Vivian! It's sadly true that many people get surgery that probably would be better without. But in their moments of desperation and with the surgeons trying to help with the training they have, it usually escalates to surgery.
The root problems need to be addressed even for someone that ends up going through surgery. It's the same as someone who has a bariatric surgery to shrink the stomach - they still need to change their eating habits or they will end up having weight gain problems again.
Thanks for watching! We hope to benefit as many people as we can!
Thank u soooo much for this enlightening vid on bone on bone.. .... I was told I need a complete knee replacement...it is indeed a relief to know u have an alternative

Appreciate this timely info. Was told by the doctors that knee replacement is the next option for pain management.
I've been told the same seems like a million times. Is nice to have alternatives 🙂
I’m so thankful you are on You Tube. I’ve learned so much from you after a partial replacement made both my knees feel worse. My MDs solution to that was to do a full replacement on the other knee. I declined but now I know what to do, thanks to your help, to do everything I can to help my knees. Thanks again
YAYYYYYYY!!!!!!
We're so happy to hear that you're doing better WITHOUT another surgery!!!

Great advice
Thank you Lipika!!!
Healed my painful meniscus tear and arthritic knees by sitting on the table with ankle weights and applied small paddle kicks. This stretches the tibia and femur causing a vacuum in the joint which is then filled with enriched synovial fluid. This is where hydration and glucosamine come into play. Increase the process 10 fold by placing a hot wheat pack on top of the knee tricking the body to rush more blood to the knee joint. 10 min in the morning and evening. Thats it. Months later starting running again around the oval with zero pain. Got this info from a Chiro.
Great method Hadrian! We're soooo happy you are back to running again! WOOOHOOO!!!
I've been trying the ankle weights 10 lbs like you mention and the difference is very noticeable. In fact I felt better even after the first time. I'm only doing 4 mins once a day but think I'll try your ideas. I've heard other people say that this will in fact increase the joint space.
Do you have any tutorials videos for this
@@rym202 Buy some 10 lb ankle weights and put them on. Sit down some place where you can dangle you legs and swing them back and forth for about 10 minutes. What I do is take my computer chair in my office and jack it up as high as I can get it.
Thank you. I will try this. I have been bone on bone for years in left knee, torn in right knee with an ankle that is shot. If they do reconstructive surgery in the 1960s it fails eventually .lol.
God is good
He has though of everything for healing our bodies
Thanks for pointing us in the right direction
😍😍😊
Thank you for this.
I worked on some of your earlier ex on the muscles on the back.of the legs and.the gluteii and walk do.much better. God Bless
Thanks David. The doctor that exrayed my knee gave me no hope for improving my situation. After listening to you maybe he was mistaken. I didn't think that it was that bad (my fitbit says that I usually walk between 8000 and 10000 steps on the days that I work).
You're welcome John!!! We're happy you have hope to improve your knee situation!
Thanks Docter David I will carryon my knee (Ex )god keep you healthy and your family you help me so much
You’re welcome Dina! We’re glad to help!!!
Love your channel
Thank you Marly Marco!!!
I am currently suffering and attempting to recover from my second meniscus terror which now also involves the upper cartilage behind the knee cap and Baker cyst etcetera. I met a man this week 55 years of age said he had a torn meniscus and his completely healed. I said healed? You mean you just were able to live life again? He said no I had an MRI and x-rays done when it happened and then a certain. Of time later and it was healed there was meniscus back in there and it was healed the way it should have been. The doctor said to him you are such a rare case. I said what did you do?! He said I don't know I work in the school that has three floors and I have to walk up and down the three floors a lot and I said to him that's got to be a key!
Thanks for the information. Ive been having cartiledge n maniscus worn out problem. Since thn i cant continue my workouts. I use to weigh 72kg, but now im 86 kg in 5 year. Now im helpless... Depressed on weight n knee problem
Thank you very much for explaining all the facts to me about what I asked you about. My. question was what should I do now that my bone on bone knee arthritis has healed nicely.. The only problem now is my leg is locked (stuck straight). I have a twin brother. Is there anything that he could help me with without much of any harm at all that would come to him?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me and everyone else that watches your videos.
. May God bless you and your family.for your good deeds.🙏
Man, you explain this so well..I am so grateful you have put these vital information online. Wish you are in Australia! I would travel across States to consult you. Knowing when and how much to do is so crucial to healing.
Hey Susie! We're glad to help! Yes, we strongly believe this information needs to be out there for people to access!!!
Reading this on 15.08.2023 - one year later from my other Aussie Friend here. I am seriously considering traveling to the U.S. to consult you. The "doctors" here, know less than I knew after spending two solid weeks reading up on the latest science on published scientific papers regarding medication and the idiocy of injuring an injured cartilage in the hope it will enhance the repair of the original injured cartilage. I can derive no sense out of them -4 so far. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience and providing an alternative to the bad options that we are told are the "only" options.
@@tjsurname119Two years ago, after my injury, I struggled to walk. I was desparate to find the right doctor, the right chiropractor, physiotherapist, I am allergic to pain medication. As I said earlier, I was seriously told to get surgery! Dr Middaugh was my answer, he is brilliant, I followed his advice to strengthen the glutes. Since 3 months ago I could walk all day, do housework, without too much pain, at least not swelling as often. I still need to be cautious, stop when it hurts.
Bravo to you! Why is it you get it but the docs I've seen don't?? All they want is $ for surgery, no way. Your exercises do work and if one keeps up with them, it helps. 🙂
Hey Kathy! Thanks for the kind words!! 💚
This is our specialty - non-surgical rehabilitation. It's a rare speciality and not many docs specialize in it.
You are so nice. I cancelled my knee surgery 2 days ago. I’m going to do what you say. I am overweight and WILL lose weight. When I get better, I will send you another comment and thank you!!!
Hi Penny, Thank you for the kind words. You got the right attitude! It is more important to focus on the root cause of the pain which more often than not a muscle imbalance.

I too have been advised that I need knee replacement surgery and after doing a lot of reading this is a huge life-changing event. I’m definitely getting a second opinion since I’m only 64 years old. I’m going to work very hard and use your exercises and hope for some good results. On the brighter side Ive lost 80 pounds so I know I’m going in the right direction with only 40 more to get to goal! Thank you!

Wow! That is really impressive! How are you doing now?
I don’t a partial knee surgery going to try it
I use bone broth made from organic chicken drumsticks which I boil til the meat is fully boiled. I then use the chicken broth with the bones and skin small amount of veggies and a tbspn vinegar in crock pot for at least 8 hrs. Strain the bones etc into a bowl and refrigerate for several hours. Scrape the far off the top and you will have chicken drumstick jellied consume which replaces joint fluid. Takes about a month for each year you have the ailment.
Thanks so much for sharing this recipe Therese! We'll have to give it a try sometime.
I just want to thank you for the information....for free!
You're welcome Gail!!!
How about INTERMITTENT FASTING to allow cellular regeneration within the knee joint?...I am combining that with exercise (walking) and biking and stretching, and am walking better now than any time in last 10 yrs....I am very hopeful for the future, without knee
replacement i hope..your info is very helpful and i will watch more and more of your videos...my knees were bent 10 and 12 degrees, and now less than 1/2 of that, due to repeated stretching of the back of the knees, including the hamstring...what do you think?
Hello Sir. Recently along with my knee pain I have developed pain on my left feet ankle feet bone outward bone. Any suggestions
Based on your vids i reckon i have both bone on bone and arthritic knee joints. Your vid on the 11 exercises not to do for arthritis have really helped. But there is also something else happening......when i sit on a table and let my legs dangle i get a nasty brief sting at the lower medial . This also happens a few seconds after I sits down. It may be patellar tendonopathy. Im throwing it out there because nothing seems to help alleviate it locally or whole. The issue happens when i take weight off....eg stepping over long grass/lifting leg out of car.......ouch 😭
I have PFPS and recently diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis with anti CCP value 43...Can we do static cycling

Greetings from India
I have bent knees and elbows due to RA since 2001 and so have limited range of movement. Your videos are very encouraging and give me hope!
Thank you Dr. David for sharing and caring.
You're welcome Eugenia Camara!!! 🇮🇳
We're so glad that you've been encouraged and have hope now!
It is great information. I was taking some collagen for a couple months then hopes that it would rebuild but then it got too expensive. Since then I discovered information about a PEA and I'm going to try that. PEA is Palmatoylethanolamide. Appreciate any info on that. Thank you
I have been living with bone on bone knees for some time now, had to give up playing squash a few years ago and forget running but I ski black diamonds and mountain bike and walk several kms each day. I also stretch and rely on curcumin from tumeric to control inflammation, also a couple of injections of Cingal each year. I am not expecting to need surgery any time soon as I do not have pain, only stiffness to deal with, I am 67.
Hey Peter!! It's great to hear that you've been able to manage your knees for a while now. You're doing things right since it's working for you! Cheers to great knee health!!!

Hi Sir ,at the moment I do have this bone to bone knee pain and your video do help me,can I ride a bike with this situation?
I saw the Director of Orthopedics for the Orlando Magic and he said if I don’t stop running I’ll need knee replacement because I had very little cartilage and then he shot up both my knees with cortisone…which made the pain so much more worse…so a couple months go by and a friend told me about a acupuncture doctor…short of it - three weeks later he got the swelling down (2 appts) and then did cupping (3rd appt) which sucked out lumps from the tender spots around my knees and I literally walked out pain free, and no swelling after 3 months of walking with crutches and a cane living with pain 24/7. ..and if anyone has ever lived with pain it affects everything. ..then I got into a bike accident and my knee pain in one knee is back because I hit it pretty hard…only thing is I’ve moved and live 8 hours away from the acupuncture doctor. ..your videos are helping me regain movement again.
Great story Maryj! We're glad that your knees are regaining movement again! And it's great to hear that you were able to avoid having to see the orthopedic again since you got relief from acupuncture!! That's awesome!!! WOOOOHOOOO!!!
Does this also apply to articular cartilage tears?
Less pressure what about work does it affect the healing
My knee is bent in a forward position and I cannot make it straight. It's hard to stand at a relax position with the forward bend. Do you have any information about this?
Dr I was diagnosed with arthritis in my knee. Dr recommended knee replacement.. sine watching your video and doing the exercises I am feeling much better..ay the location at my knee it I'd bending outward, what can I do to get it straight again. Thanks for all the information
