My mother has knee pain.

2017-03-17 08:32:06
My mother has been having knee pain for 2-3 months now. We consulted some doctors, they prescribed Calcium (and vitamin D I guess) tablets and mother has been taking it. However, her knees pain continues. Is there some exercise she should do(or should not do) ? Or some food items that she should consume (or should not) for a better recovery ?

Quadriceps Exercises- Lie straight, make a towel role and put it under the knee, press the keen against the role, hold it for 20 secs. Repeat 20 times twice a day. This will help relieve some pain. Core Strengthening Exercise- Straight Leg Raised With Toes Turned Outward, repeat 10 times, twice a day. Hams Stretching- lie straight, take the leg up, pull the feet towards yourself, with a elastic tube or normal belt. repeat 10 times, twice a day. Sports Taping- stretch the tape from both ends and apply on the affected area Contrast Fomentation (Hot and Cold).
