Helpful tips

Stay active and work out to keep your muscles strong and flexible.
Keep a healthy weight to avoid putting too much stress on your joints. Eat a healthy diet to keep your muscles healthy.
Be sure you do not hold your breath when exercising. This can raise your blood pressure. If you tend to hold your breath, try counting out loud when exercising. If any exercise bothers you, stop right away.
After exercising, it is a good idea to use ice. Place an ice pack or a bag of frozen peas wrapped in a towel over the painful part. Never put ice right on the skin. Do not leave the ice on more than 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Ice after activity may help decrease pain and swelling. Never ice before stretching.
Doing exercises before a meal may be a good way to get into a routine.
Exercise may be slightly uncomfortable, but you should not have sharp pains. If you do get sharp pains, stop what you are doing. If the sharp pains continue, call your doctor.
