Did you know that the knee is the most commonly injured joint in the body? Common injuries include fractures, dislocations, sprains, and ligament tears. As we age, knee pain is more problematic, usually the result of osteoarthritis. This pain can result in a limitation of the activities we love to do, or feeling that we need to forgo them completely.

While we can’t prevent all the age-related changes to our knees, there are ways to keep our knees healthier as we age. In this presentation with Allan Mishra, MD, you will learn about the most common problems associated with knees. Dr. Mishra will discuss how to strengthen your knees, prevent injuries, and exercise safely at any age.

Dr. Allan Mishra is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with extensive experience in sports medicine and a practice at Stanford’s Menlo Park medical clinic. Dr. Mishra is also an Adjunct Clinical Associate Professor of Orthopedic Surgery at Stanford University Medical Center. In addition to his medical practice, Dr. Mishra is the founder of VitalityExplorers.com, with a mission to “Enhance Global Vitality, One Person at a Time.” He is a regular guest instructor for Stanford’s Continuing Education program, leading a course called “How to ENERGIZE Your Life.”
