Stick a fork in me
Hi everyone!
Lately I've been having a problem and I thought some of you here might be able to help.....
My knees have been killing me!
And I know it's probably because of my recent weight gain. For the record, I'm 5'8", pear shaped and probably close to around 400 lbs. (And, no, that is not a personal ad!)
I've noticed the pain especially when I've been gettin up and down from my seemingly very low couch and very low toilet seat (sorry if that is TMI) and when I'm bending my knees. This seemed to come on all of a sudden. Other than possibly losing some weight (for medical reasons), which would not happen overnight anyway, do you have any suggestions to help with this?
Exercises? Creams? A higher toilet?
Anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks in advance for the help!
