Chronic knee pain is a common problem for seniors, and it can make it hard to stay active and independent. There are a number of things that you can do to manage your pain at home, however. First, make sure to keep your legs warm and to wear supportive shoes when you are moving around. You should also avoid sitting in the same position for too long, and take breaks to walk around every hour or so.
In addition, over-the-counter pain medication can be helpful in managing pain, but be sure to talk to your doctor before taking anything new. Finally, consider using a knee brace to support your joint and reduce pain. By following these tips, you can help to manage your chronic knee pain and maintain your quality of life.
