7 Stiff Knee Stretches – Ask Doctor Jo
Stiff knees can occur for many different reasons including arthritis, a sprain, a strain, or any other knee injury. These stretches should help. More knee stiffness treatments: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT85Ju0DuyU&t=0s&index=8&list=PLPS8D21t0eO-Ab_0ywWDTQHflRx8eHcCC
Doing patella (kneecap) mobs is a great way to get the knee loosened up. Since the patella is connected to the quad tendon and the patellar tendon, if it gets tight, it will put pressure on the knee joint.
Since the calves, hamstrings, IT band, and quads all cross the knee joint, it’s really important to stretch those muscles to help relieve stiffness and tightness in the knee.
Finally heel slides lying down and seated can really help decrease stiffness in the knee.

Thank you so much, I saw some immediate improvement after the first two exercices. I had tibia shaft nail surgery 4 weeks ago and felt hopeless as the stiffness wasn't getting better – it's fine after warm up but if I don't move for 1-3 hours it gets seriously bad to bend/ stretch.
I have RA and I have stiffness in my knee and I can't straight it well I usually place a folded towel underneath my knee to prevent from paining… Hope you could help me what can I do and what exercise I can do at home

I got have knee replacement my knee won't bend well this work for me
I don't have more stiff knee but am unable to bend it fully😓.
Can this be a solution for my problem?
Hope yes.
I showed it to orthopedician also, but it is not yet healed
no matter what i try, im unable to move my knee, would it be safe to do the stretches until my knee loosens up a little? my entire legs are like concrete, i have no injury, just sedentary lifestyle.
