| osteoarthritis of the knee. |
About 60 percent of patients with osteoarthritis have knee involvement. This is due to structural changes due to the deterioration of the knee bone and cartilage. It is also called age-related osteoarthritis of the knee. Due to this, elderly people suffer from knee pain and difficulty in walking. Many sit on chairs and pray or cook. Most patients with osteoarthritis do not walk because they have knee pain. But that's not right. Praying in a chair further reduces the mobility of the patient's knee, causing the joint to become progressively stiffer, leading the patient to complete disability. The patient is never able to move the knee normally again. And in osteoarthritis there is no prohibition against flat walking, rather the more active the better. Apart from that weight loss brings great benefits in this disease. Stopping walking and exercise will increase the weight.
