Knee swelling

[Angela]

What do I do? I have never experienced knee pain or swelling with lunges and squats but this time around the exercise block my knees are killing me. Is this an age issue, genetics, weight, improper form?

Any ideas on how to get a good workout without aggravating the knees so much?

a number of things...do you do squats/lunges reguarly? If not, then start easy. Also, I take Osteo Bi-Flex, it has helped me tremendously to continue to squat and lunge...

I had my knee to swell, usually right before it rains. I was suprised this month, it was my right knee. So I iced it and stayed off it as much as possible. I can't remember which website, but they had exercises for your knee. I hope you are feelin' better!
