Hi,
I have osteoartheritis on both knees - more noticeable on the right knee. I think it came about because of a sports injury.
I am a bit confused about sports injuries on the knee and how they are handled. Are they generally different than osteoartheritis or can they be similar? There seems to be alot of information about runners with injuries and that barefoot running will help but have not come across anything about barefoot running and oseoartheritis - though have come across research about osteoartheritis and barefoot/minimal shoes walking and that it is beneficial.
I have been reading up about barefoot running and hope to start but am wondering should I wait before the pain is gone?
Thank you.
