knees
suggested by [unspecified] on Friday, January 19, 2007

| I have bursitis in my right knee. I have to do less kneeling and soaking in epsom salt in a warm bath helps ease the pain. I also do leg lifts--I sit at the edge of my sofa with feet flat on floor and I raise my right leg like 12 reps and eventually I'll add weights when my knee gets stronger.Massage also works. |
