@the.anatomy.hub2: If going downstairs hurts your knee, avoiding stairs forever is not the goal. A gradual progression can help rebuild strength, control, and confidence. Start with low-movement quadriceps work, progress to controlled step-downs, and gradually return to normal stair descent as your tolerance improves. The key is progressive loading: enough challenge to build capacity without repeatedly increasing symptoms. #KneePain #KneeRehab #PhysicalTherapy #KneeStrength #Anatomy
