Re: Knee problems.

Hi Cairo,

What do doctors know anyway.

1) Try a ginger root compress on it. Its good for sports injuries.

Steep one inch of fresh ginger root in 4-6 cups of water.

Do not boil!!! Strain it and put back in pot.

Bring to 120-125 degrees. Wet small towel with it and wrap knee.

Place larger towel around it and let cool (apx. 5 minutes)

Repeat at 140-150 degrees

Then at 160-175 degrees. Area will become pink to red the third

time and heal overnight.

Use same liquid for 24-36 hours and repeat if necessary.

2)Check a martial arts magazine for some kind of bruise liniment.

3)The knee is weak. Get support on it. Ace bandage or elastic

knee brace until it is stronger. Use at practice and in games for now.

4)Speak with a physical therapist about exercises for the knee.

5)acupuncture, oriental massage and/or chi kung energy healing.

 

Namaste,

David
