What is the best way to stop knee pain?

Xray first: At age 71, the likely source of the pain is osteoarthritis. I would have the knee xrayed to determine how significant the arthritic involvement happens to be. Injectable lubricants can be very helpful if the arthritic involvement is not severe (bone-on-bone).

Exercises: Exercise therapy can be very helpful for knee pain, particularly runners knee. However, they must be performed in certain ways. Rest from strenuous activities and targeted therapy are key. Online resources are available on sites such as simpletherapy.Com.
