Hi Ali, Thank you for sharing your concern. Is there any swelling over the knees and stiffness along with the pain?

Hi Ali,

Can you tell me if you feel any pain, swelling, or stiffness along with the sound in your knee? Does the sound occur during specific activities, like climbing stairs or squatting, or is it more frequent with movement?

For knee crepitus (the sound in the joint), you can try Ashwagandha and Guggul to reduce inflammation and support joint health. Turmeric (Curcumin) and Boswellia are also effective in easing joint discomfort. Regular strengthening exercises for the quadriceps and hamstrings can help support the knee joint, while using warm or cold compresses may help reduce any inflammation. If the condition persists, seeing a physiotherapist for targeted exercises may also be beneficial.

Hello Ali Its sign of degeneration process in the knee as started but definitely can be arrested the degeneration process here itself.

Understanding knee crepitus involves looking at possible dosha imbalances. This specific ailment often indicates Vata dosha aggravation, which is associated with dryness, brittleness, and the sounds you’re experiencing. To address this issue, we can consider a few ayurvedic approaches that can be integrated into your daily regimen.

First, incorporating a diet that balances Vata is essential. Warm, cooked, and mildly-spiced food can be beneficial. Try having kichari, a mixture of rice and mung beans, with just a touch of ghee to aid lubrication of joints. Avoid cold, dry, and raw foods which can increase Vata.

You might find regular massage with warm sesame or mustard oil helpful. Apply gently in circular motions around the affected knee. This helps in improving circulation and reducing stiffness. Be consistent, about three times a week, warming the oil before use to let it penetrate effectively.

Engage in light, joint-friendly exercises like walking or yogasanas such as Vrikshasana (Tree Pose) and Uttanasana (Standing Forward Bend). These promote flexibility without overstressing the knee. At least 20 mins a day, but listen to your body, and stop if there’s any pain.

Consider taking ayurvedic herbs like Ashwagandha or Shallaki. They have anti-inflammatory properties that help in managing pain. A trained Ayurvedic practitioner can prescribe appropriate formulations and dosages based on your individual constitution.

And don’t forget hydration – drinking warm water throughout the day aids in keeping the tissues supple and functioning correctly.

Remember, knee crepitus, while often benign, can indicate underlying issues if it’s accompanied by pain or swelling. If you notice such symptoms persisting, seeking professional medical advice is crucial to avoid any severe ailment.

Implement these suggestions steadily into your lifestyle, paying attention to how your body responds, as each individual’s path to healing is unique.
