Can I Exercise If I Have Arthritis? Will it make arthritis worse?
Osteoarthritis of the knee affects millions of people across the globe. Many people who were active stop their activities because they are afraid that they will make their osteoarthritis worse. Please read the disclaimer below. Feel free to visit: www.howardluksmd.com/sports-m... for more information.
Does exercise worsen arthritis? Does exercise improve arthritic knee pain? Many people remain active for years after being diagnosed with osteoarthritis. Most of you can and should continue with well tolerated exercises even after receiving a diagnosis of arthritis. If you have questions you should consult with a doctor first for proper guidance.

Dr. Luks, Thanks for the work out info! YOU ROCK!!
Great information. Thank you.
Hi Dr. Luks! I am a 60 year old male. I had an x-ray showing osteoarthritis at the cmc joint in my left hand. I recently had an mri of the right knee showing the same. Up until the last 6 months or so I was an avid hiker and worked out regularly at home doing a routine of pull-ups, dips, push-ups, ab exercises, etc. You are so right about the psychological component. Push-ups now hurt the hands, hiking, the knee, other exercises, the shoulder. I have gotten in a funk from it all and put on a couple pounds. I saw a physical therapist which turned out to be a waste of time and money. What is your take on glucosamine? Turmeric capsules? I want to continue being active, especially after watching this video. I was one of those who thought that using the joints would wear them out faster. Thank you for disabusing me of that fallacy.
I’d like to see the video on the issues around hip replacements
Hello d-r Luks. Do you have any specific papers with evidence about the ineffectiveness of PRP? Can you provide links in the comment section for me so I can read them?

Rehabilitation Plovdiv the point is that PRP, stem cells, etc can not cure osteoarthritis. Most ortho docs would agree that many patients feel better after a PRP injection ... but it needs to be clear that PRP is not a cure for OA.

Always remember we must repent of our sins (sin is transgression The Law Of Yahuah The Father in Heaven. The Law are The Books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy). We must repent of our sins and Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that we can be forgiven of our sins! Come to HIM Today!!
