Top 5 Exercises For Knee...

Exercises can help manage knee fractures. After a knee fracture, rehabilitation exercises can help improve knee strength, stability, and range of motion, and reduce pain. Physical therapy exercises may include range-of-motion exercises, strengthening exercises for the muscles surrounding the knee, and balance and stability exercises.
