If you purchased insurance through the Health Insurance Marketplace, you should report changes to the Marketplace when they happen. Changes to your household income or family size may affect your eligibility for the advance payments of the premium tax credit.
Step #1: Implement the Correct Weight Lifting Exercises. One-legged exercises are going to be your best option for strengthening the musculature around both knees. You want to make sure your strength in both legs is balanced. Strength imbalances in legs can cause you to put more stress on one knee and lead to problems.
If you're not sure which motions are safe or how much you can do, talk with your doctor or a physical therapist. Do exercise. Cardio exercises strengthen the muscles that support your knee and increase flexibility. Weight training and stretching do, too. For cardio, some good choices include walking, swimming and water aerobics, stationary cycling and elliptical machines. Tai chi may also help ease stiffness and improve balance.
