Whether you're an athlete, a middle-aged employee, or a completely laid-back young adult, understanding when to treat your painful knees from damage, might lead to a satisfying lifestyle.


More than 180 million individuals in India have arthritis, osteoarthritis, stiffness, and painful knees. Furthermore, according to the WHO, joint pain affects one in six Indians and usually starts around 40. Hence, it's important to get your knees tested as you grow old or if you have any discomfort and consult an orthopaedic immediately if you need knee pain treatment.


Test Your Knees to Learn How Healthy They Are


Do you feel a crackling sound and knee pain while climbing or descending the stairs? Or Do you have morning knee stiffness? These could be signs of early osteoarthritis. Any joint or bone can develop osteoarthritis. You will find it quite challenging to move or climb stairs with osteoarthritis.


Take a self-test for Knee Health Assessment in 2 minutes and calculate your Knee Score. This score can help identify if your knees need immediate attention. A low knee score indicates that you need orthopaedic examination and consultation at the earliest. Additionally, we recommend getting an X-ray done once you turn 40 whether you have symptoms or not. This is because as an early-grade patient you may have degeneration in the knees but you may not experience enough symptoms to realise the condition.


Besides, even for ages under 40 and if your knee is aching, swollen, stiff, or hard to bend and extend, then consider getting an X-ray done for a more accurate diagnosis.


Exercises for Healthy Knees


Performing these exercises regularly can help you maintain strong and healthy knees:


  1. Straight leg raise
  2. Isometric quadriceps
  3. Isometric hamstring
  4. Dynamic quads
  5. Sit to stand
  6. Heel slide
