Howard G. Smith MD, AM on Instagram: "Best Exercise for Knee Pain? Here’s a pop quiz. If you develop knee pain, which form of exercise relieves that pain most effectively? Is it A. Strength training, B. Stretching, or C. aerobic exercise. If you picked C, you are correct. Swimming, cycling, walking consistently delivered the largest improvements in pain, mobility, and quality of life for subjects studied in 217 clinical trials. So report Chinese orthopedic investigators working in collaboration with statisticians at Johns Hopkins and Canada’s McMaster University to conduct a meta-analysis of these studies. If you have knee inflammation and pain, whether due to arthritis, injury, or overuse, aerobic exercise will help reduce pain and help you move better without increasing risk of additional injury. Strength training and mind-body exercises are helpful, but they work best alongside aerobic activity.. The references for this report are available on my website. #kneepain #arthritisrelief #healthtips #fitnessscience #mobility"
