Question

I NEED A KNEE REPLACEMENT DUE TO BONE ON BONE ARTHRITIS. WALKING IS PAINFUL. AM I DESTROYING MORE CARTILAGE BY WALKING FOR EXERCISE?

Answer 1

Its important to exercise in a way that does not cause additional inflammation or destruction of the joint. There's a very simple rule to follow: if it hurts, stop doing the activity because you are injuring yourself.
