I broke my right patella in basic training and then developed patello-femoral pain disorder in my left knee.  I suffered from chronic pain for years.  Then I started doing full range of motion squats (front, back and overhead).  If I can't go all the way down until I hit the stretch reflex, then the weight is too heavy.  (That point is below parallel, where the crease of the hip is below my knee.)  I have experienced 100% pain relief and my knees have become significantly less "crunchy".  Call me weird, but doing weighted full range of motion squats and a whole bunch of other stuff has actually improved my knees and given me relief.  I wouldn't know from experience, but from talking to people who don't squat with a full range of motion, that their knee pain increases over time, and they have suffered joint damage.  It's kind of like the people who do pull ups, but don't go to the full range of motion either at the top or the bottom, and then complain of elbow and shoulder pain. 

This is just from my experience and observation.  It is worth exactly what you paid for it.   ;D

wouldnt i need to see a doc to get a prescription? im still young though, all these pills cant be good for me. And id need to travel quite a bit to find a walmart (pretty much city wide ban on walmart)

Yes, you would need to see a doc to get most of the meds I listed, especially any pain management drugs.

But I will tell you first hand........that is not a fix and only leads to a chemical addiction to them.

It can lead to addiction, but not always. I took vicodin after the accident for quite some time. Once the pain subsided, I stopped taking them with no ill affects, but that's just my experience...

6 a day is a quite a lot of Tramadols, that pushes up on the daily max you can take. Probably couldn't be good for the liver.

I just get the withdrawl symptoms from it.

I completely trashed out my right knee/hamstring a decade ago playing softball. Now it wreaks total havoc on me from time to time.

Sounds like I need to bump the dose of fish oil.  [thumbsup]

Or get back into some serious dope smoking.

Recommended dose for tramadol is 50-100mg (1-2 tabs) every 4-6 hours. Max dose is 400mg a day per Tarascon...

Damn, I was off by 100mg on the max per day.


I love how they say every 4-6 but realistically that shit only lasts 2-3hrs

A large dose of THC will probably make you forget about the pain . Add some Fish Oil and it may feel all better.

I snap, crackle, and pop along with aching all the time. My orthopedist is already talking about knee and hip replacements in my 30s. One of my hips audibly grinds when I walk sometimes.

Mother says I'm lying about my age and calls me an old lady.  >:(
