If you have torn meniscus Do NOT do Squats..Dr. Oz showed a exercise he did for his torn Meniscus instead of surgery , and it works..Go to his website I'm sure it's there.The show was a few months ago, but check it out.

For years I have used Capzasin HP for soreness in my now 85 year old knees and hips with generally good results. Two weeks ago suddenly I was just about completely prevented from walking by tendonitis in my right knee - I had decided it was time to invest in a walker but as I went to Amazon to check out that possibility I came across once again a recommendation for Penetrex. I ordered it and a day later had applied - at first since there is no sensation of heat as with Capzasin I thought it was not working. But a day later I was nearly back to the previous condition and now 5 days later am ready to resume my daily 1 mile walk. Five stars.

I've been using Penetrex since November 2014 for knee injuries after heavy squatting, and am experiencing no pain relief at all. I understand this product appears to work for others, but I cannot say it has for me.

Yes, I used this product on my slightly torn meniscus and after a couple of days I think it actually worked! I am purchasing a 2nd bottle.

Yes, as far as I can tell, it would work on knees. I needed it for elbow, but do not see why it would not work for sore muscles around knee area. It is analgesic so don't expect a cure for arthritis, but some relief should be expected.

I bought this specifically for knee pain (suspect a torn meniscus) and it worked better than I anticipated. 5 star review

It has a lot of squats, but not a lot of lunges. Lunges are worse on the knees in my opinion.

It does help the minor pain in my knees. Don't know about major pain issues.

My husband uses it on his hands and feet with good results so it should help your knees. You only use a small amount and rub it in. The bottle lasts a long time. It is worth giving it a try. Good luck.

i didn't try on the knees. best to buy tens machine and i bought one from www.otcwholesaler.com for my mom. i showed it to the physio and she said it's a good machine. U will need to set the pulse rate and width and the mode. hope this help. My mom told me it relieved her knee pain.

I bought this for my mom, so I actually have not used it myself. It doesn't seem like it would work for the knee due to the design. The company has other products, maybe there is one designed for the knee. Jaime Thomas

I didn't use these knee pads for that purpose, but the cushion is very thick so I think they would be a good choice to do exercises on your knees.

No. It is good for a short while. I used it for a few weeks and started having terrible knee pain. I haven't used it much since. :(

i use it for low back problems. not sure about knee issues. u should ask your doctor if your knees should be elevated.

I don't think it'll be a good knee warmer. Its relatively thin (perhaps to keep cool while you work out). Has the thickness of a beret, or two fleece jackets layered over each other. Very polyester-y in feel as well, so I don't think that traps heat well.

I don't see why it wouldn't work on a knee. It's flexible enough to bend around a knee but you might have to hold it in that position with your hand. I don't know if the velcro fastener would make it tight enough to stay in place.

I have never used it for my feet but I would say that it is. It my just go up to your ankles though.

I already had knee problems when I started using this brace so I can't say if it is good for preventing problems...but I can say that it supports my knee and so I feel that I would not cause more injury.

I would think it would be very helpful for a hip. It was a wonderful help for my knee!

Yes. In fact that is what I used it for because it is bigger than the knee pad and provides more complete coverage.

Yes, this is well padded and would be great for that. I am a personal trainer and use this for a couple of my older adult clients for floor work and it is great for protecting knees and elbows.

I believe it would be good for that. However, it depends on how severe your condition is. I have found that it keeps things in place very well and comfortably, and it kept my knee from hurting during physical activity. Also if you wear it during physical activity it will significantly reduce the chances of getting water on the knee, and n last a lot longer without fatigue or pain. If you find that you need to wear it all of the time, I would recommend seeing a doctor.
