Learn about knee arthritis

    Description

    Having a healthy knee joint makes walking, bending, sitting, standing -- or just about anything that requires moving around -- easier.

    Unfortunately, with a painful, stiff joint, many of these activities become much harder or less fun.

    A good first step is to learn more about your knee arthritis and how it is changing your life.
