Fort Wayne Knee Pain Relief Tips Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc

May 19, 2020

Knees and knee pain. Boy, do we work our knees…or at least we should! Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc hears about painful knees almost as much as we hear about painful backs and necks! Fort Wayne knee pain sufferers know the symptoms and wonder “What can I do about this knee pain?” Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc has some interesting new research on exercise, chiropractic care, and nutrition to keep knee pain under control.

EXERCISE PROTECTS THE KNEES

If you suffer with Fort Wayne knee pain, it may seem that moving the painful knee will only aggravate it more. Many doctors like yours at Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc and researchers have heard that! That’s fear. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc gets it! Physical activity is good for your knee’s overall health though. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc will be right beside you to calm your fear and be sure movement is beneficial! Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc also reminds you that a sedentary lifestyle may cause more issues and likely end in more joint health troubles. A study that tracked people for 8 years found that persistent sitting was not associated with knee osteoarthritis while low to moderate level of strenuous physical activity is protective against knee osteoarthritis. If you sit a lot, exercise, too. It helps. The authors specifically report that long-term strenuous activity participation did not increase the incidence of knee osteoarthritis. That is good news! They report cautiously that people who were older, have a larger BMI, more severe pain, weaker quadriceps and depression were not as likely to do any strenuous activities. (1) If that is you, let us together get past these issues for your knees’ sake! Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc is a fabulous Fort Wayne health partner!

QUADRICEPS HELPS THE KNEES

And talk about good partners, quads are to knees! Strong quadriceps benefit knees. Exercising the quadriceps is wise! A study compared younger and older folks performing resistance exercises via machine vs. elastic band. Both succeed! Maximal voluntary contraction of the knee extensors in older folks is greater than that in younger people. Exercise may benefit the older folks strengthen that muscle so it can persist longer and potentially reduce the muscle loss that normally comes with aging. (2) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc can lead you to stronger quads!

COORDINATE KNEES AND LIMBS

Have you heard of patellofemoral pain syndrome? It’s a name for a most common musculoskeletal disorder that finds unusual motor coordination of the limbs that stresses the knees unequally, raising their risk of pain. (3) Knowing this helps your Fort Wayne chiropractor direct treatment and exercise to help coordinate motion. One way toward improvement is resistance training whose effectiveness can particularly be noticed in hopping. Researchers found that hopping requires strong ankles and knees that work together well. Resistance training increases strength and coordination giving rise to gait and knee/ankle benefits. (4) Do not let the child in you start hopping just yet! Talk with your Fort Wayne chiropractor first!
