I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my knees and sent to physiotherapy who gave me exercises which made my knees and legs ache more. This week she is putting me in a warm pool to do exercises. I am on Naprosyn 750 but the pain does not go away. Should I even bother? I am on a surgery list but considered not urgent. I do work and its becoming increasingly hard to cope.

My dad has osteoarthritis and osteopenia in his low back. Additionally, he has a slipped disc. Are there any stretches or exercises that can help lessen his pain?

I have just been diagnosed with osteoarthritis. So, I am new to this. I was just wondering if someone could please tell me the reason to why you get this disease and if it is anything that a doctor could give you to cure it? Will medication help this disease or will it just be a waste of time trying to take medication for it? I have been in so much pain for the last few weeks behind this illness and I am currently going to the therapist to do some exercises on the foot that is messed up. I was just wondering if I could get some kind of advice on this sickness and if there is somethinf I can do or get to help my siguation?

I have been exercising, but lately my hip pain is so severe that I am unable to do all the exercises I learned in Phy T. What cardio can I do since walking and running are out of the question.
I forgot to mention, swimming is out of the question too. I can’t swim and I have a trac.

My mom was advised by her doctor to have knee replacement surgery due to her arthritis. However, since she’s diabetic, he also advised that she lose 30-50 pounds prior to surgery. Her diet is fine, but she really needs to incorporate more exercise to help get the weight off. Besides water aerobics, what are some low impact exercises she can do that would put pressure and strain on her knees? Thanks.

This summer my mom started feeling pain in her right elbow. Later her whole arm would hurt so the doctor said it was probably Tendinitis so she gave her a few exercises to do. Now her joints in her wrist, knees, ankles and toes sometimes hurt. Doctors still don’t know what it could be. Any ideas??

I have already lost 55 pounds without exercise. But I need some exercise that doesn’t put me in pain for a week before I can exercise again. My back hurts when I run on me tread mill and my knees hurt severly after exercises.

I don’t see my Ob/Gyn until the third of July. If the pain continues or gets worse I will call and speak with their nursing staff. I am wondering what I can do in the meantime to help. It is to the point that I get sharp pain everytime I walk. Are there home remedies or exercises for S.I. Joint pain?

I am 11 weeks pregnant, so no anti-inflammatories can be used.
Thank you!

My mom has really bad arthritis in her legs and is making her life miserable. Does anyone know of any kind of medication, natural remedies or exercises that could help?
