Back from the doctor's appointment

So you just need to be more gentle with the exercises, I really hope it will be enough because surgery is not fun at all. Wish you the best!

What kind of accident did you meet 19 years ago? Hot compressed your knee. Hoping it's not anymore disturbing now.

With the age people have knee problems. Better is to stic with the exercise that your doctor has told you to do

I hope that more physio will work instead of having surgery. Surgery is not fun.

I hope the physiotherapy helps. Knee pain is terrible hampering mobility.

Yeah my mom sometimes has to do physiotherapy during the winters.

If the right exercises or PT moves can help you are much better off. I see you have a history with this doctor.

Phooey on that surgery! Let’s hope the new exercises solve the problem.

So it is only the knees?

I hope it helps

All the best to you,

It is good to see that you are taking your doctor's advice seriously and looking for light physiotherapy. Prevention is better than cure and, in this case, better than surgery. So, focusing on careful movement and therapy is a good choice. The weight cuff exercises perhaps could put some strain on your knees, even can worsen the condition. I can understand your frustration when different physiotherapists give conflicting advice. Good thing is this doctor has a history of treating you and is familiar with your medical background. Since they helped you recover from your accident few years ago, probably we can trust their judgment and treatment. Prioritizing knee care now would help you avoid more serious complications in the future. Stay motivated and consistent with physiotherapy. Hopefully, your knees will recover well! Take care!
