Acupuncture is the shit. I’ve hobbled into a clinic doubled over, walked out straight.
Doesn’t work for everyone but if you get someone that knows their shit it is gold |

| I have psoriatic arthritis which attacks the connective tissue. Diet has been a huge help with me. I can tell within 4 hours that I've eaten something I shouldn't have. Cycling has also helped keep the knees lubed. I mainly do a lot of pushing now on longboards. My daughter helps keep me out there when I'm not feeling it. |

Not actually lubed, just moving. Both myself and Jeff Ament were getting injections of some biological lubricant into our knees and it really worked for both of us when the doctor did it correctly and got it in the right spot (Jeff's doc had a few misses... myself I was very fortunate that my doc took care of several Olympic teams and the guy knows knees so well he doesn't even need to use scans) and it worked very well up and until I had to pay for it at $800 a shot 2 to 5 times a year.
I found there were times the pain was insane and hospitals couldn't help. But this knee specialist would give me a shot of cortisone that almost always had me back to normal by the time I walked from his office to my Jeep. Fucking godsend that stuff is—when you need it the pain is fucking insane!!! |

| I laugh that my Dr has never one time touched the one spot that is stabbing- nobody has - but i can't point straight to it and cringe. It's one little tiny dot, but at night it flames up and will 100% hurt for days after skating. Have had surgery (Didn't work), therapy for years - doesn't work. The lube injection wasn't approved for some stupid ass reason (Costs too much). I can't even walk up one stair without mass pain when it's flamed up. Picking shit up? LOL - One little fucking spot. |

With my kind of arthritis it does help lube the tendons where I have the problem. Exercise will force some movement of fluid out of the joint and help soak the tendons to help ease the pain. |

| Not knees, but I was bone on bone in both hips. Titanium is the shit. Surgeon got legitimately butt hurt when I asked if he would "make the incisions cool looking, like lightning bolts or something". Best thing I ever did for myself. |
