Health: That pain in the knee


IF you have a sedentary lifestyle and your work forces you to sit for more than eight hours a day then you are at a high risk for developing knee arthritis. Knee arthritis typically affects people above the age of 45 years but is most commonly seen in overweight females above the age of 50 years not doing knee exercises regularly. Knee pain typically affects 10 per cent of people between the age of 35-45 years, 30 per cent between 45-55 years and almost 70 per cent of population after 55 years. However, knee arthritis is a preventable problem and the need for knee replacement surgery can be avoided by few simple precautions and measures.
