Answers:
First of all, you need to get off the treadmill!. A treadmill can be horrible for someone with a bad knee!. Try either a bike or the eliptacal!. It takes the pressure off your knee and more on your leg muscles!. Swimming is also a good way to work out without hurting your knee!. Good luck and I hope your knee gets better!.

P!.S!.
Consult a physical trainer or doctor on better workouts that would help relieve the stress on your knee!. Good Luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Swimming is a good exercise if you are experiencing knee pain as it does not put pressure on the joints (although if you have any self confidence issues I am sure that the thought of getting into a swimsuit is not appealing)!.

I have heard of one treatment which has never been tested, but people have claimed it has worked wonders for them!. Basically they spray some WD-40 (the engine lubricant) onto the affected area and rub it in really well!. It is supposedly very good!. It has never been medically verified though, but it is cheap and small exposure should have no harmful side affects (I am covered with it all the time) so it may be an idea!.

If you do use it though let me know if it works or not!.

Good luck in loosing the weight!. Getting started and getting the momentum built up is always the hardest thing to do!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The first thing you need to do is identify why youre having knee pain!. If its because of a physical injury(maybe you held it the wrong way during labor), you can get cortisone shots from the doctor!. That helps me alot with my shoulder which I was sure after 3 years was permanently damaged!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
