Reason why your knees are not in good condition 2

膝の調子が良くない理由2

Difficulty bending or straightening the knees
Do you have any such concerns?

For those who feel it's difficult to bend and straighten their knees while exercising,
I would like to discuss some of the possible causes of the problem from a physical therapist's perspective.

The movement of tissues such as muscles and ligaments that extend from the thigh to just below the kneecap is closely related to bending and straightening the knee.

If these movements become impaired, bending and straightening movements can feel uncomfortable.

The term "reduced movement" has a slightly different nuance from "stiffness," but the commonly used word for this is "adhesion."

Once adhesions occur,

The many muscles and other tissues around the knee are no longer able to function properly.

Another way to express this is to say that it is not slippery.

To improve slipperiness, it is best to ask a therapist with sufficient experience.

However, there are some people who want to take care of themselves, so in that case, the so-called massage should be done from the thighs to the plate,
Try going gently around the bottom of the plate for a short period of time.

It is important to be careful when grinding too hard and for long periods of time, as this can make the surface worse.
