My wife is having knee pain while sitting or getting up since last 8 days. As such she never hurt her knee. She delivered baby 6 months back and prior to that she took complete bed rest for 6 months due to preganacy related complication( stiches). Is it normal to have knee pain post delivery (after bed rest). Any remedy? Thanks for advice

• Contrast Fomentation (Hot and Cold). • Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment in which knee is applied warm water followed by the immediate application of the knee with ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation.
