5 exercises to beat chronic knee pain (slideshow)

Things to remember

While all of these exercises can help your knees feel much better, there are some things to remember…

Never perform an exercise that is causing your chronic knee pain to worsen. Muscle soreness is fine but sharp or shooting pain in your joints is not what you’re going for.

And remember, the old saying — “move it or lose it” — is true. So even if these exercises are hard for you to do, at least try low impact exercises like walking and swimming to improve your knee pain.

Chronic knee pain doesn’t have to ruin your life and you don’t have to end up in surgery to fix the problem. Start the exercises above today to strengthen and stretch your leg muscles and get rid of that knee pain for good.
