Taking care of your knees: Do's and don'ts for healthy joints

Dr. Steven Bokshan shares tips on taking care of our knees as we get older.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Knee pain shouldn't prevent you from doing the activities you love, especially during the holiday season. 

Dr. Steven Bokshan with Cone Health Orthopedics joins this segment of 2 Your Well-Being to share more about the do's and don'ts for keeping your knees healthy.

A traumatic injury to the knee isn't the only thing that can cause knee pain. It can also come from wear and tear over time, getting older, or an injury that never healed on its own. 

When it comes to keeping your knees healthy, it's important to stay active, but be smart about exercise. Consider lower-impact sports like swimming to keep a knee injury from re-occurring. 

You can learn more about living an active life, even if you're experiencing knee or joint pain. Dr. Bokshan is hosting a free class called Healthy Joints: Staying Active with Osteoarthritis on Tuesday, Dec. 12. Register for the class online.
