Possible Knee Pain cure
I have had an ongoing problem with my knees for 2-3 years.
It has gotten so bad I began taking PHYSICAL THERAPY 2 weeks ago for it.
I had taken so much Ibuprofen that I elevated my Liver levels by 300% , which means FATTY LIVER , which is a prelude to CIRRHOSIS .I quit that !
I expanded on the therapy efforts tried something that has all but taken away , 100% , my pain in my knees.
I have an Orbiting massage unit , approx. 16"x 12" with 2 KNUCKLES that are covered by a rubber glove, that rotate in a slow-sorta way. I believe it was designed for necks but not certain. I placed it UNDER my knee, folded my other leg on top of THAT upper leg , and allowed it to MASSAGE my underside knee area for hours. Moving it every 10 minutes or so , UP or Down toward the calf area. It does give a PINCHING feeling that is slightly painful, but well worth the results.
I used to have ( severe ) trouble walking, after sitting or driving for any length of time ..that is GONE !
I am walking WITHOUT a limp for the first time in many years.
I am taking ONE ALEVE in the mornings ( sometimes ) , just as a maintenance / insurance move.
I do put SOME muscle rub on both legs since I am walking more, and my leg muscles are getting usage that they have not had for a long time.
These massage units are easily found at Thrift stores for $3 - $10 and I would encourage EVERYONE who has similar problems to try it.
I felt the difference the next day .. A remarkable difference.
Hope this helps someone
