A member asked:

What can you do for loose knee joint problems?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It depends on cause: "loose" knee joint can indicate ligament, meniscus, or arthritis problem. It may be due to muscle atrophy as well. It should be evaluated by an orthopedist or rheumatologist, especially if it is causing instability or falling.
