Walking can prevent knee pain from osteoarthritis, according to new research, which shows that regular strolls can prevent the development of the common complaints that come in the early stages of the disease.

Grace Lo from Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas in the United States and her team examined more than 1,200 patients with knee osteoarthritis for a study published in the journal Arthritis & Rheumatology in June.
