Arthritis: Stay active. Joints are meant to move and if not moved regularly (without causing any damage of course) they tend to stiffen up. Regular swimming is the best exercise. Walking is second best. Knee joints improve with better thigh muscle strength. A moving joint is a healthy joint. Good luck..
