Is it safe for me to exercise if I have knee osteoarthritis or hip osteoarthritis?
Exercise is considered the most effective non-surgical treatment when it comes to managing your hip and knee osteoarthritis. Unfortunately, only about 30 percent of people with OA meet the physical activity guidelines of 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity each week. Aerobic exercises like walking can actually help to combat a lot of the comorbidities seen with people who have OA such as diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. Strength and flexibility exercises can help to improve your muscle strength, improve the stability in your joint, and increase range of motion. All of which will help you to ultimately reduce your pain. Experiencing some pain during exercise with OA is completely normal. On a scale of 1 to 10 if your pain rating goes up about two to three points during exercise that is considered completely normal. It's worthwhile to push through it because ultimately the benefits of exercise outweigh the risks
