I liked the article and even posted it elsewhere on this forum. Some of the ideas I've incorporated, which seem to be helping my knee arthritis:
- Take a single aspirin or ibuprofen when you exercise.
- Ice the joint for 20 minutes just before and just after exercising.
- Cross train if you must, but do your main exercise (cycling) as soon as you can.
I'm disappointed in my doctor. He didn't take the time to tell me about exercise and arthritis. He doesn't even seem to know that I'm a cyclist, even though I've mentioned it to him repeatedly, and he's even treated me for bike injuries from a crash.
