2. How to Prevent Knee Pain Knee pain has a host of causes. Many types of pain are difficult to prevent, but you can do some general things to reduce the likelihood of sustaining a knee injury.

3.  Stay slim • Staying slim reduces the forces placed on the knee during both athletics and everyday walking and, according to some medical research, may reduce osteoarthritis. • Keeping your weight down may also reduce the number of ligament and tendon injuries for similar reasons. 2. Keep limber, keep fit • Many knee problems are due to tight or imbalanced musculature. Stretching and strengthening, therefore, also help to prevent knee pain. • Stretching keeps your knee from being too tight and aids in preventing both patellofemoral syndrome and iliotibial band syndrome. • Strengthening exercises particularly of the quadriceps (straight leg raises and leg extensions are two excellent exercises, but please see a book on exercise and training for more) can help prevent knee injury.

4. 3 Exercise wisely • If you have chronic knee pain, consider swimming or water exercises. • In water, the force of buoyancy supports some of our weight so our knees do not have to. • If you don't have access to a pool or do not enjoy water activities, at least try to limit hard pounding and twisting activities such as basketball, tennis, or jogging. • You may find that your aching knees will act up if you play basketball or tennis every day but will not if you limit your pounding sports to twice a week. • Whatever you do, respect and listen to your body. If it hurts, change what you are doing. • If you are fatigued, consider stopping; many injuries occur when people are tired.

5. 4. Protect the knee • Wearing proper protection for the activity at hand can help avoid knee injuries. • When playing volleyball or when laying carpet, protecting your knees may include knee pads. • When driving, knee protection may include wearing a seat belt to avoid the knee-versus-dashboard injuries as well as injuries to other parts of your body.
