The pain is due to the shiffting of the joint from one side, the stronger side wih more muscle strength pulling and the weaker side being pulled. This causes stress on the joints causing pain. I have off and on Plantar Fasciitis, I have very high arches, I do a lot of stretching to relieve this. >Becky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 25, 2000 Report Share Posted June 25, 2000 Becky: I hyperextend my knees when I walk, also. The AFO's I wear have relieved a lot of the pain, but also doing some leg lifts with ankle weights helps tremendously. I know when I start hurtin' I need to get crackin' and do some of the exercises that I learned from my physical therapist. I occasionally take Naproxen, too. (I have one high arch and one low arch) FYI, Melody just me > > > > What happened was my messages went direct to Libby instead of CMTUS > >then I tried to forward it you can see why I don't write in much .I was > >wanting to know if any of you have allot of pain in your knees & any > >trouble with Planter Facetious.When I overdue it from my knees on down > >It hurts.

I have lost 50% quad strength in my legs along with the rest of my muscle loss, its near impossilbe. I wear full leg braces from groin to toes. I take Celebrex, it helps the swelling.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2000 Report Share Posted June 25, 2000 Hi Becky, I hope your braces fit really well and give your legs the best support possible. I am currently getting cortisone patch treatments (isophoresis) for an irritated tendon on the inside of my knee (which is being caused by my short leg brace, we think). I also ice the knee every evening. I had really bad pain for the last 6 weeks unless I stayed off my feet most of the time. It is much better now. I can relate to anyone who has knee pain - it's awful. Please take care, Melody Re: just me > > > >Becky: > > > >I hyperextend my knees when I walk, also.

Yes my braces fit very well, actually they relieve the pain and fatigue I was struggling with before with the AFOs. Do your knees feel weak and wobbly as if they are going to just pop out of joint and let you fall? Mine do, and I'm not that steady on my legs to begin with! LOL >Becky M.
