However,
most people who come to my office with knee pain do not have this deeper
level of knee injury. They do not have torn ligaments, tendons, meniscus, and
cartilage, but they have a lessor level, or a
sprain/strain complex of their knee.
So what is a sprain/strain of the knee and what do you do about
it?
In
the knee chapter I discuss:
·
Knee sprain/strain (the cause of most people's knee pain)
o
Included is a detailed
list of how to treat it. (both at home and by a medical office)
o
How to work with a
medical office to make sure you get quality treatment.
o
There is a one page
handout of the treatment that you will be able to print and use as a
reminder. This is the same handout that
I give my patients.
·
Osteo-arthritis (OA) (wear and tear) of the knee (also very
common)
o
What to do if it
doesn't respond to therapy.
Many
medical offices will simply tell you that you have arthritis and that you are
going to have to live with it. They do
not have an effective treatment for knee pain.
Many of my patients
are quite surprised to find there is a treatment for their knee pain.
They also are quite pleased when their pain
is gone.

I have had a problem with pain shooting down my arm pretty much my
whole life off and on. This book helped me not only understand what's going
on to cause the pain, but what steps to take to better the problem as well.
My husband got a hold of the book
and was able to help his chronic knee pain with Dr. Bruce's advice. If
you can't use something in the book right now, hold on to it, you might be
able to use it in the future!
Thanks,

The back of my knee was
inflamed and in pain. I wanted to be educated as to how I could fix
this myself and after consulting and reading Dr. Bruce's book, I tried the
home treatments recommended and now I am pain free. I must say your book had a lot of great information throughout.
