Got knee pain? Here's how to strengthen your knees.
Strengthening this important joint in each leg is essential, not only for injured athletes who need rehabilitation to get back on the field or court, but for everyone else to be able to comfortably go about our daily lives without needing crutches or other walking aids.
Normal Hip Range of Motion
Range of motion (ROM) is a measurement of the distance and direction a joint can move to its full potential. Hip ROM is dictated by the ball-and-socket hip joint, which is made up of the femur (thighbone) and pelvis. They fit together in a way that allows for fluid, repeated motion—and a fair amount of wear and tear—but the joint isn’t indestructible.
Understanding the Causes of Knee Pain on the Outer (Lateral) Part of Your Knee
An injury or arthritis most likely causes pain outside the knee. A doctor can determine the cause based on your other symptoms and the results of imaging tests.
Hip Replacement Dislocation
Among the most frequently seen complications of hip replacement surgery is dislocation of the hip replacement. Hip replacement dislocations occur in about 4% of first-time surgeries and about 15% of revision hip replacements. This complication is uncommon, but it does occur—sometimes in unforeseen circumstances.
7 Ways Chondroitin Sulfate May Benefit Your Health
Chondroitin sulfate is a relatively safe supplement used to support joint and cartilage health. Chondroitin sulfate has become increasingly popular for managing joint pain, particularly related to osteoarthritis (when the protective cartilage within the joints wears down over time).
