About National Knee Day
United States
Ends: Oct 22, 2025
DESCRIPTION:
National Knee Day highlights the importance of the knees and how to prevent injury—sponsored each year by the National Knee Society.
Preventing knee injuries is essential for maintaining long-term mobility and joint health. Here are ten things a person can do to minimize the risk of knee injuries:
Warm Up Properly: Before engaging in physical activities, especially rigorous ones, warm up your muscles with low-impact exercises like walking or stationary cycling.
Strengthen Quadriceps and Hamstrings: These muscles help support the knees. Regular exercises like squats, lunges, and leg curls can help keep these muscles strong and balanced.
Maintain a Healthy Weight: Extra weight increases the stress on your knees. Keeping a healthy weight can reduce the risk of knee injuries and other joint problems.
Wear Supportive Footwear: Proper footwear can help ensure proper foot and leg alignment, which can help prevent knee injuries. Avoid wearing worn-out shoes and choose shoes suitable for the activity you're engaging in.
Use Knee Braces or Supports: If you have a history of knee problems or are participating in activities that put a lot of strain on the knees, consider wearing a knee brace or support to provide additional stability.
Avoid Sudden Changes in Activity Intensity: Gradually increase the intensity and duration of your workouts to give your body time to adjust and reduce the risk of injury.
Practice Proper Technique: Whether during sports or day-to-day activities, ensure you use the correct form. Consult a coach or trainer if you need clarification.
Stay Flexible: Regular stretching can help maintain range of motion and reduce the risk of injuries. Focus on stretches that target the hamstrings, quadriceps, and calf muscles.
Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration helps maintain the elasticity of ligaments and tendons, reducing the risk of tears or injuries.
Listen to Your Body: If you feel pain (especially sharp, sudden pain) or discomfort in your knee, it's essential to stop the activity and rest. Pushing through pain can lead to more severe injuries.
Remember, while these tips can help reduce the risk, it's impossible to eliminate the risk of injury. Consult a healthcare professional if you have concerns about your knees or any potential injuries.
