Stretch/strengthen: The best things you can do to protect your knee joint with this condition is to make sure you stretch and strengthen the muscles around the knee. The hamstrings and quadriceps muscles are particularly important to support the knee. A physical therapist could help you with exercises to keep these muscles in good shape.
