Aquatic exercise: knee pain, diabetes and weight

my dear friend, nice to hear abt ur gd health condition..truly pleased with ur reports.....few things like to share..... -homeopathic treatment is not an alternative treatment for knee surgery.... every knee pain and restriction r different thing......only reports like arthroscopy or radiology can define the cause of pain....even simple arthritis too resemble like knee pain..... 2)its true aquatic exercises I'm too firm believer of it....we need to understand reason ....would let u know.... infact most drs doesn't advice to have swimming for better results of bones.. muscles.. ligaments....since water acts like a resistance to our body so u apply more force to it for movement.... which helps in contraction and relaxation of muscles where different enzyme reactions take place.. blood flow requires more to it....that's how ligaments becomes flexible..... now in sugar.... ppl need to understand that sugar needs to be converted into energy..... so by having aquatic exercises more energy is required... thus it comes down....sugar. I have explained it in lay man language.. but for sugar basic ppl does avoids exercise.... u need aerobic and anaerobic exercises both... no issue... just shared my views.... any else enquiry if required ....most welcome more

Dear Shri Dhirendra Krishna, Hearty Congratulations for your success so far; and thanks a lot for sharing. Best wishes for continued progress. Iyengar Yoga would certainly help in further progress. If interested, please let me know your city; and I could recommend some center/s for the same. It costs nothing to practice, except investment of time and efforts. Best wishes again more  

Dear Sri Dhirendra Krishna, we are surprised that you are 77 yrs. old from the looks of your photograph in your profile. Nevertheless both me & my wife either have or had knee joint problems. While I used to have knee locking (leg doesn't flex) , which luckily got cured through fish oil capsules (on Doctor's advice), my wife continues to suffer a lot of pain while walking even small distances. We have over a period of 2.5 yrs. consulted Nizams Institute of Medical Sciences, Retired Professor of Orthopaedics (highly reputed & even related to us) & a doctor of specialised orthopaedic hospital at Visakhapatnam. They have at different periods of time opined that she has only age related deterioration & Physiotherapy will do.All of them prescribe glucosamine & Ayurvedic oil/ Aceclofenac ointment for massage & Ultracet or Etodolan as standby pain relievers S.. Private Doctor has however sought feedback in 6 months ( a year has elapsed) so that failing to improve, she can be given some injection (for cartilage improvement). While we also gave her fish oil tabs in night & additional Ayurvedic treatment (application of watered powder/paste overnight & oil massage in the morning). She regularly attended Physiotherapy under qualified specialist at a medical college hospital. Regrettably there is no improvement & orthopaedician at the hospital advises knee cap replacement against injections, which are not likely to give relief according to him. In fact, the Physio trained at London has not advised us any "Aquatherapy". We are at present in USA & likely to return on 10/09. I am available at email:mvsmurty8@hotmail.com. We will be happy if you can advise us in this regard. more  

Aquatic exercises & Homeopathy as an alternative to knee replacement is a pleasant treatment.. The problem in our country is that Allopathy dominates ortho related issues, and allopaths do not consider homeopaths as doctors, hence, limited benefits. Government must build around this ortho related issue a department in homeopathy science for R&D immediately.. National bodies of Homeopathy may also be involved .. more
