When you have a painful knee - whether it’s arthritis knee pain or a flare-up from a sports injury - you should use a cane for support when you walk. And when you sit, it’s best to keep the knee straight. This is a position of rest. It allows the kneecap to “float” and decreases pressure within the joint.
That’s easy to manage at home and in the office. But what if you have to fly? How do you keep your knee straight on a crowded plane?
I haven’t written for a couple of weeks, as my right wrist was giving me a lot of bother, which is rather unusual for me, as it’s usually the other one that plays up. Here I’m going to briefly mention some other vitamins that are used in some cases for arthritispain relief.

And the second culprit…? Genes. Yep - that age old excuse, ‘It’s not my fault, it’s my genes’ suddenly seems to have the backing of the medical establishment.
Apparently, there’s a specific gene that’s been linked to weight gain called the ‘fat’ gene. (What’s wrong with modern scientists these days? Whatever happened to impossible-to-pronounce Latin names for things? Even fatimus would have made them sound brainier).
