sitting for long periods

I have severe knee pain, i believe its aggravated by sitting for long periods of time at work.

Anyone have the same thing or know of anything that can help??

Hi
It can make you prone to blood clots. (Pulmonary Embolism)
Taking 81mg aspirin is a good idea for everyone.
Besides thinning the blood some it has been shown to reduce the risk of some cancers.

A baby aspirin a day or you can wear a jobe stocking, it's a compression sock that helps the blood flow in your leg(s).....I've had a few battles with blood clots the past 10 years as well as torn ACL so sitting long period of time hurts my knee but the sock does help and I take a baby aspirin per day just because........but like joeyc said sitting LNG period of time, work, driving or long flights can make you more prone to blood clots and you don't want tht, it's nasty and dangerous, especially the meds....really mess with what you can and can't do as well as diet and certain foods you can't eat....

good advice with the aspirin , i take one a day with my eca stack and it helps a lot,

I sit for a long time at my job, too, and my knees will start to ache at times. I usually have to stretch then get up and walk around when that happens.
