Inflammation in the Knee Joint Ligaments can be extremely painful
to the point where it is impossible to walk. That’s because the knee joint, medically known as the tibiofemoral joint, is the largest joint in the body. This joint is dependent on the muscles and ligaments which surround it for strength.
Four ligaments are present in the knee joint, the medical collateral ligament, lateral collateral ligament, anterior cruciate ligament, and posterior cruciate ligament. These ligaments provide strength to the knee joint.
Knee pain is an extremely common complaint, and there are many causes. It is important to make an accurate diagnosis of the cause of your symptoms so that appropriate treatment can be directed at the cause. If you have knee pain, some common causes include:
- Arthritis
- Ligament Injuries
- Cartilage Injuries
- Patellar Tendonitis
- Bursitis
- Gout
Some signs that you should be seen by a doctor include:
- Inability to walk comfortably on the affected side
- Injury that causes deformity around the joint
- Knee pain that occurs at night or while resting
- Knee pain that persists beyond a few days
- Locking (inability to bend) the knee
- Swelling of the joint or the calf area
- Signs of an infection, including fever, redness, warmth
- Any other unusual symptoms
Some common treatments for knee pain are listed here.
Not all of these treatments are appropriate for every condition, but they may be helpful in your situation.
- Rest
- Ice and Heat Application
- Stretching
- Physical Therapy
- Anti-Inflammatory Medication
- Cortisone injections
- Natural Anti-Inflammatory compounds
Nature provides many natural remedies for anti-inflammation. One of the most powerful is the camu camu berry from the Amazonian rain forest. It contains the largest amount of vitamin C of any fruit and a bunch of other bio active compounds.

Electromagnetic Radiation Dangers
More and more evidence is surfacing about potential dangers of electromagnetic radiation. The electronics industry in general, and the cell phone industry in particular are doing a very effective job of keeping the lid on research in this area, but it is coming out, nevertheless. Think of this as electromagnetic (EMF) pollution. You can get a good overview by watching a video by Professor Olle Johansson about the recommendations international scientists are making to reduce electromagnetic radiation to improve health. Yes, electromagnetic radiation can impact your DNA.
Here a 5 easy steps you can take to reduce electromagnetic radiation dangers.
Step 1: Get rid of wireless phones in your home.
Return back to phones with cords. VOIP is OK, but connect it to corded phones not wireless phones. If you talk on the phone for long periods of time, the worst thing you can do is have a microwave radiation source (the wireless phone) next to your brain.
Step 2: Get rid of wireless routers
Sure, it’s a great convenience to be able to take your laptop, tablet or smart phone around the house, but it is much healthier to have everything hard wired. Hard wiring has an additional advantage of restricting electromagnetic frequencies (EMF) coming off the devices themselves to particular locations in your home. This is a clear example of giving up convenience and coolness for health.
Step 3: Limit cell phone conversations
There are several things to keep in mind with cell phones.
Cell phones are always in contact with cell phone towers. That means they are constantly emitting EMF. Keep the cell phone as far away from you as possible when you aren’t using it. The EMF radiation diminishes with the square of the distance. That means if it is twice as far from you the radiation is one fourth. If it is 3 times as far the radiation is one ninth. So, don’t carry it around in your pocket.
During conversations, avoid holding the cell phone next to your head. Use the speaker phone with the phone some distance from you or use an earpiece (one with a wire not Bluetooth) as alternatives.
Do not have a cellphone next to your bed when you sleep. Make sure it is at least 4 or 5 feet from your head. If you use the cell phone as an alarm, put it in airplane mode when you sleep.
Limit using the cell phone inside metal enclosures like cars.
Remember that you are getting EMF exposure even when you send text messages.
Step 4: Keep electronics away from your nightstand
Any type of digital technology including alarm clocks, pagers, digital tablets, etc. radiates EMF. If you must have them in your bedroom, put them on the other side of the room from your bed. It’s amazing how just a few feet can reduce your exposure to the radiation.
Step 5: Protect yourself from your computers
If you use a desktop computer, put the actual computer at least a couple of feet from your body. If you use a laptop, then don’t ever actually use it on your lap.
Taking those simple measures will be a big help in protecting you from the danger of electromagnetic radiation
