However, running and high-impact activities do not cause arthritis and may even be protective. Muscle vibrations, caused by jumping and landing, contribute to knee arthritis, but stronger muscles may help reduce this effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some factors to consider include a history of trauma, ageing, family traits, and obesity. The approach to  management focuses more on management tips rather than treatments as there is currently no reliable and repeatable method for replacing human cartilage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen or watch the podcast below to find out more from Nick and Dave from the clinic and the ways in which we can manage this condition better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to the latest episode here and all of our other episodes on your chosen platform \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/kite.link\/nk-active\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/kite.link\/nk-active<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: What you need to know about knee arthritis..\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"624\" height=\"351\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/episode\/6DloUl8QQtQKbPZEnWZgc7\/video?si=EV1_fb8NS8G7reg6NPEIug&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And here is the YouTube video!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"What you need to know about knee arthritis.. | podiatry podcasts\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9OmDeAHi7Fw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nkactive.co.uk\/nk-active-lunch-club\/\">Are you a clinician reading this blog right now?
