In my case that's what the doctor said, although, I think the injuries to the knees from playing basketball, when I was old enough to know better, didn't help. You'd think an old fool in his 40's would know better then to play street basketball with a bunch of 20 somethings. I learned that joints will only bend so far, before severely complaining and punishing you. Spent way too many weeks on crutches as a result of that game. That's been quite awhile ago, but seems like the winters remind me of that lesson learned.kramer said:I hope you don't mind me asking, but what causes these knee problems? Is this genetic caused by arthritis?
Not sure if I can blame the time staring into the faces of the opposing teams on a football field for my hip, but I do remember that it always seemed to take two of them hitting me from different directions to bring me down, and unfortunately, they learned that lesson far to quickly. I remember limping off the field a number of times as a result of that.
I choose to blame it on bad genes giving me arthritis, but it may be a combination of all of the above.
