Knee
 

Off to the orthopedic guy to see why my knee has been killing me for 6 months!

And then hopefully meeting Alffe for lunch! ;)

OUCH and NICE (re: knee and lunch!)

My knee
 

Got wonderful news! It's not my knee - it's my BACK! All I have to do is back exercises. Have already done one set and I swear my knee is already a little better!!! Yay! Had a really nice lunch with Alffe. It's snowing here now. It'll be the first real accumulation.

Have a spinich and swiss cheese quiche in the oven (left overs from our lunch!) yay and yay on your knee!

tell me the exercise... then my kness might get better lol:D

Lie on your back with your knees bent. Keep you feet flaat on the floor. Grasp your thigh the knee and slowly pull it to your chest. Keep your back flat against the floor. You will feel pulling in your buttocks and low back. Hold for a few minutes switch legs and repeat exercise. Another - lie on your back. Lift your leg.. Place your hands around your thigh, just above the knee. Then tighten your abdominal muscles. Pull your leg toward your chest until you feel pulling in the back of the leg. Gently straighten your leg as much as you can. Hold for a few seconds, switch legs and repeat exercise. Another - lie down and bend both knees. Press your low back into the floor and tighten your abdominal muscles. Hold for several seconds then relax. Repeat several times. There are more but I won't include them all. Let me know if you try them.

That's great news Barbo! :hug:
And snow... is beautiful so enjoy it safely from a cozy spot in your home :)

Barbo...I have had the same problem. My right knee is hurting like no other since I herniated my L1,L2 disc. I had surgery on my lower back and am now recovering. Its been one month today. I keep wondering what I have done to my knee and wanted to see a doc for it. What your saying makes since!! :hug:
