My arthritis is called patellofemoral (under the kneecap) with mild arthritis in the rest of the joint. I did not have Orthovisc, I had Euflexxa (same thing different companies). This did not help my knee pain, but we did not think it would help. I have tried multiple PRP injections from...

I work in an orthopedic office, and have had the hyaluronic acid injections. They usually work quite well for meniscal tears. Please do not let them give you any more cortisone injections, the studies prove that cortisone can cause the rate of arthritis to accelerate. Here is one link regarding...

I work in an orthopedic office, we recommend the Airiest Pneumatic Armband, It is $14.88 on amazon. We recommend you use it whenever you are lifting.

I have osteoarthritis of the knee and use 1000mg curcumin (turmeric), Cosamin DS, and apply Diclofenac (Voltaren) topical gel to the knees. I highly recommend getting PRP with A2M protein injections to prevent further deterioration of the knees. I work in an orthopedic office and we have had a...

Do you follow a specific instructor for your silks? I have one and would love to find some good workouts to follow.

Aerial yoga is my favorite. I have a hammock in my house, such a great stress reliever!

This can be due to a few conditions, I would go to an orthopedic specialist and have it evaluated. It could be as simple as a sprain or a tenosynovitis and a cortisone injection could relieve the discomfort.

Has anyone had a patellofemoral knee replacement? I need to have this procedure and was wondering if anyone here has had one, and if you were able to resume cathe's workouts after the procedure. I know it will take time after the surgery, but I do worry about how long it will take to get back...

So sorry to hear that you need to have the meniscus repaired. My physician uses bone marrow aspirate concentrate injections when he repairs them, it allows for healing and pain relief. We aspirate your bone marrow from the iliac crest and inject into the area with the repair. It is amazing how...

If you have no pain there is no reason to fix the meniscus. I work in an orthopedic office, our physician tells his patients that meniscal repair will accelerate the development of arthritis. The irrigation used in arthroscopic repair is very acidic and washes away the synovial fluid in the...

I would like this too!

I have really been enjoying the "live" workouts during this quarantine. Since there are 299 workouts will you please post your favorites. Please feel free to rate them according to groupings, ex: LI, Hiit, weights etc.. Thanks for your help.

My polar watch stopped working and I need to get a new watch. I am considering getting an apple watch, but would like to know how accurate it will be in comparison to my polar watch with chest strap.

I would love to get a rebounder, does anyone have a suggestion as to the best one and where to get the best price.

I did Live #3, All about legs yesterday. I really liked this w/o but it had a lot of breaks. I would love to see a w/o similar to this with fewer breaks.

I work in an orthopedic office and we see a fair amount of tennis and golfer's elbow. Usually it is the result of overuse or lifting too heavy. Give it time to heal,it usually takes anywhere from 6-12 months. Topical anti inflammatory creams can help, as well as a brace. You can order the tennis...

I had a vitamix but honestly did not like it. If I didn't cut everything up it did not blend well, and forget trying to blend "sticky" stuff like figs. I now have a Ninja and love it, you can put anything in it and it works in seconds. Bonus: it is cheaper than the vitamix.

Thanks everyone, I ordered the Teeter one from costco (Merry Xmas to me, lol). Hopefully this will help.

Thanks so much, I had no idea that Costco sells them.

I have a bulging disc in my low back and it was recommended that I use an inversion table. Does anyone use one and if so what brand? There are so many on the market and quite expensive, just want to make sure I get a good one.
