Calf Raises
Stand against a firm support like a wall bar at a gym, back of a chair, or back of a couch. You might also be able to do this move on the stairs by facing against the banister by hanging the heels jutting off the edge of the stairs. Gradually try to lift the heels as higher as you can and then lower it to the starting position. Perform this exercise daily of 10 to 15 repetitions and make three sets of these calf raises in total.
Exercise is always a healthful and noninvasive way to aid with mild knee pain due to arthritis, overuse, or any other causes. Stretching and knee strengthening exercises are quite effective to keep the knees more stable and flexible. Including knee strengthening exercises in your daily routine can help in preventing and alleviating pain from your knees. People having severe knee conditions must consult their doctor first before doing the knee pain exercises at home.
