Pain in knee. Pain, what should i do?

You should do the following exercises to strengthen your knee musculature. 1. Straight leg raise- lie flat on your back on bed/ floor and lift your leg up from the ground or bed with knee kept straight and ankle pulled in towards you and your big toe should point towards the ceiling. On the top position hold the leg for 10 seconds. Repeat the exercise 5 to 10 times 3 times a day. 2. Ankle pumps - lie flat on your back on bed/ floor and pull your ankle in towards you, hold it for 10 seconds and then move your ankle out away from you towards the floor and hold it for 10 seconds. Repeat the exercise 5 to 10 times 3 times a day. 3. Concentric and eccentric quadriceps exercise - Sitting on a chair with your feet properly supported on ground. Lift the leg up by opening the leg in front at knee joint and pull the ankle in towards you. Hold it for 10 seconds and do 5 to times 3 times a day. You can do the above exercises for both the knees as these would just strengthen the knee musculature and would not only help you with relief of pain but also help you to combat unusual pressures on the knee joint. If any doubt you can see my profile on Urban Clap.
