5 Achy Knee Pain Relief Stretches & Exercises
An achy knee is often caused by tightness or weakness in the muscles around the knee. These knee stretches and exercises may help relieve the knee pain. Buy a worksheet with these achy knee relief moves at: https://www.askdoctorjo.com/achy-knee-worksheet
The first exercise to help relieve an achy knee is a quad set. This will not only help strengthen the quad muscle, but it will also help loosen up the knee joint.
Next is a heel slide. This is a great way to get some bending or flexion in the knee. Using a strap can also help get an extra stretch.
The last three stretches are with a strap for some of the muscles that cross the knee joint. A hamstring stretch, IT band (or tensor fasciae lattae) stretch, and a quad stretch should help get rid of some of the achy pain around the knee.

hi dr jo! i am wodnering if it’s normal for our knee to vibrate when we place our hand on top of it. especially after exercising or bending the knee or during squat, lunges? i am worried
Hey I’m 17 years old and And am a sprinter and wide receiver for fball. For a long time now my internal rotation has been bad in my legs whereas my external rotation is very good. I have tried to work on internal rotation like the 90/90 stretch but when I do it I feel a sort of tight pain that feels like a string is pulling inside the outside of my knee. So I haven’t been able to do any internal exercises since as it’s too much pain. It’s not like normal knee pain more like a tight pulling. No physio has been able to help me. Do you know what this is?
Dr. Jo is the most awesome of awesome. Come for the dogs and comedy, stay for the injury treatment and prevention. Thank you so much for all you share!
