Stretch / strengthen: The knee joint is the thigh bone (femur), shin bone (tibia) and knee cap (patella). Joint surfaces have cartilage, the joint is held in place with ligaments (cruciate and collateral) ligaments, movement is facilitated by the knee cap and thigh muscles (patello-femoral complex). In the absence of infection / gout / inflammation most knee pain is mechanical due to major or minor trauma. NSAID/physio
