How to cure a sharp pain just slightly above the knee cap and the lower part of the leg?

I have had knee pain on and off for over 50 years and I have invented some exercises that really help: Just be careful and do not try and do something your body can not do.

When my knee is hurting real bad, i usually lay on my stomach, then i pull myself up on my elbows and arch my back. I usually look over one shoulder, then the other to first relax the mussels in each side of my back...then i stick out my leg horizontal to my body, and keep it there until the pain I am feeling in my hip goes away...Then I lay on my back and pull my knee up to my chest...both if you can do it...but one at a time for us that can not..Then when you straighten out your leg your knee should pop, when it pops the pain will go away...it might take a long while, of doing these exercises until you finally feel some relief...Just keep doing them, and take it easy doing them...and eventually your knee will not hurt any more.

I hope this offers some relief for those of you with knee pain.

place moist hot towels on the area of pain for twenty minutes at a time, several times a day. Hopefully this will relax the muscles and take down any inflammation.
