    i think i have an unhealthy fear of hyper extending my knees. i'm very careful to always stand with them slightly bent... even if i look silly.

    damn stoners.. :rolleyes:


    i'm talking about the human body...

    i take care of my joints... and i don't do anything to hurt them.. thats why i'm saying it's an unhealthy fear.

    I feel the same way.. every now and then when i jump up too many stairs I feel the bones in my knee and they hurt. It makes me afraid that I will make a problem happen. Or maybe that its already happening without my help, and one day i will randomly need an amputation or be unable to walk...

    Good morning,

    a year or so ago I had the feeling that my kneecap or some other part in my knee became loose and moved around. It came out of the blue, felt weird and hurted like hell while walking. After a few days the problem went away. Strange thing.

    Regards
    Gyro

    Glucosamine check it out its good for joints seriously. Other then that drink alot of milk for calcium and vitamin d. If you did that when you were younger you would not have had to worry at all.

    I stand sheeted out, so my knees are forced slightly bent all the time.

    works for me.

    but I feel un-natural when my feet are side by side.
