Hey everyone, I'm making this thread for any advice anybody is willing to give me. My Momma has always been a bombshell. Long auburn hair, green eyes, hot bod, and the best personality. She has always been active, riding her bike, walking instead of driving, etc. Unfortunately recently she has an in injury in her knee... or maybe its arthritis. I don't know, nor does she, we're still waiting for the doctors to get back to us. The reason I'm posting is because, well, shes gotten fat, lol! Since she hasn't been exercising (and she just quit being an alcoholic a few months ago) the pounds have just gained on her... but she can't really move her knee D: Is there any exercises any of you know of that can help her stay in shape until her knee starts to feel better? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Nettles, Urtica dioica, can be used for severe arthritis pain. This involves carefully collecting a 2-foot section of the stem, with a gloved hand. The stem is then used to pat against the painful area. This causes about half an hour of extreme pain from the nettle sting. However, the painful area will be numb for the next 2 or 3 days. This treatment is used only for severe pain. Massage is essential therapy for arthritis. Massage should be gentle and comforting. The purpose of this therapy is to relax muscles, clear lactic acid from the muscles, and comfort the person. Massage should last about 15-30 minutes and should be followed by rest.
thank you so much for replying. :> she clearly needs treatment, thats for sure. I just wish there was someway to exercise while not doing anything to affect the knee.
does she use a wheelchair? cos if she does she can take it out and do excersise with her upper body while moving the wheels with her hands
