I'm not sure about football that's hell on knees I thought just look at how many of them have knee OP's?, how about mountain biking that's good for your knees.0

Hi Christina if you post over on Living With Arthritis you will get a better response. There are a few people with OA in the spine that can give you advice.
Welcome to the forum,
Pamie, I hope they gave you an idea of what exercises to do. Football can be a bit much but if you enjoy playing then a least it won't feel too much of an effort. Cycling is a good one as Mell says.

Well, with the amount of painkillers I am taking a day to keep the pain away I should be ok, like the doc n physio said I just have to take one step at a time.
Gona be doing some pilates, aerobics and maybe a little gym work to strengthen my knees up.
I am still aching a bit right now due to my fall but the aquaaerobics will help with that one lol.I ♥ Runrig.

I still do Tai Chi and that seems to work for me especially on balance, but my shoulder is still giving me grief, I think I will have to swop my drinking arm! :???:
Ohhh rehab, thats why I am going back to football, not only will it strengthen my knees n what not but the arthritis in my right shoulder is worse than my knees, can't do much wi it.... atleast when I get some exercise, my stomach toned and what not it will help alot of other stuff I have wrong with me as well.I ♥ Runrig.

I've been doing pilates and swimming for 2 years now, Pamie - brilliant for arthur... although if the pain's too bad I don't always fancy imersing myself in luke warm water... I always go though and feel better for it
