You start to notice it slowly at first. Your knee feels stiff getting out of the car. Achy after a walk. Tight when you try to squat, kneel, or climb stairs.
At first, you brush it off. "Maybe I just overdid it." But then it doesn't go away.
So you do what you're supposed to do — you go see a doctor. You get the MRI. And there it is.
|"Arthritis. Wear and tear. This is normal as you get older."
No real answers. No real plan. Just a quiet expectation that this is something you'll have to live with.
So you try physical therapy. You do the exercises. You stay consistent. But nothing really changes. Your knee still feels stiff. Still aches. Still limits what you can do.
And that's the most frustrating part — you're doing everything right, and it's still not working.
