及早養腎保護膝關節
孝子：「爸爸年紀漸長，不時抱怨膝痛走不動，吃止痛藥也沒有用，應該怎麼辦？」
CheckCheckCin：膝痛走不動多源於關節退化，關節退化是自然的老化現象，症狀包括關節疼痛、酸軟無力、僵硬、上落樓梯有困難等，多見於長者、骨質疏鬆症患者及長期體力勞動者。中醫典籍《黃帝內經》提到男士「五八(40歲)腎氣衰」，而且「五臟之中，腎主藏精，主骨生髓」，由於男人的腎氣從40歲開始減弱，腎精不足導致骨髓空虛，骨質無法得到足夠養分，關節隨之退化，影響腿腳活動。如果膝關節不適症狀影響日常生活，應該盡早求醫。也可以透過以下方式著手，防止及延緩關節老化。
- 控制體重，以免過重而加重膝關節負擔，甚至引發關節炎
- 多穿長褲避免膝關節受寒
- 每天早上10時前或下午4時後曬太陽20至30分鐘，吸收維他命D及補充陽氣
- 少提重物，如提取重物時要保持正確姿勢，下蹲並降低身體重心，身體盡量貼近重物，挺直腰背，靠腿部力量抬起重物
- 適量進食養腎食物，例如夕米水、黑芝麻、黑豆、蠔、瑤柱、核桃、腰果等
- 每天按摩腎經穴位，活躍腎經內氣
