It has been quite some times that I am having this problem and it has been a never ending story from there onwards. It happened quite some times back, most probably in my secondary school when I was not too good at taking care of myself.
Most of the injuries I get right after playing sports were not taken care nicely, just let it be and let the times do the job to heal it. Well, it does heal the outer part of the skin, but the internal muscles already getting from bad to worse. Conclusion, I have a bad knee now. Extremely bad, which, I feel like getting rid of it.
I used to think that, osteoarthritis, only happens to old peoples but I was wrong. It happens to any one, when you do not pay full attention to any injuries inflicted to yourself.
What is OSTEOARTHRITIS? Sort of like pain in the joints, caused by wearing of the cartilage that covers and acts as a cushion inside joints. Once the cushion becomes less, the bones will start to touch each other, and it will causes pain when walking, standing and even worst, if you squad down and try to stand up again.
It never gets to me last time, but as times goes by, whenever there is a change in the weather (I can assure you that my knee can forecast the weather extremely well), the pain starts to grow even greater. Whenever this happens, you can see me walking like a handicap man. All I can do, is just wearing a knee braces. It does not help much though, but minor down the major movements, it does help a little bit though.
I am not complaining though, it is a result of careless from myself. I am just trying to voice-out my stupidity and my stubborness in taking care of myself. Now, I can't really enjoy my favourite sport as much as I do last time, as it only make it worse instead.
Peoples, please take good care of your body or else you will regret it when you are getting older. Sigh...
