Wlking and Oteoarthritis

question: Wat type of walking regimen is recommended for someone with OA of the knee?
 
answer: Walking, although likely not damaging to the knee, often makes the pain worse. However, for most walking is an enjoyable, easily availale exercise. If possible,try to lessen the impact by finding a flat, softer surface. Synthetic tracks (found in schools) or non-concrete trails would be good. Treadmills or elliptical trainers are also good.
