Of course, there are thousands of exercises that could be put on a topic like this. And depending on what is the real cause of your knee pain, the above exercises may help immediately after a few repetitions or some of them may not help at all. And important to prevail the common saying in the Physiotherapy world, if it hurts to do it, or causes more pain while performing the exercise – just stop and speak to your Physiotherapist to alternate suggestions.

Disclaimer: Prescribing exercises is very much like prescribing medications. Specific exercise and their dosage, frequency, intensity needs to be carefully given and are different for different individuals based on their age, injury, and conditions that we are dealing with. Ideally, exercises need to be prescribed after a though clinical assessment by a Physiotherapist. However, these exercises are just a “best prediction” to help with your knee pain and not an actual prescription after an assessment.
 

Sit to Stand:

Start by scooting close to the front of the chair.  Next, lean forward at your trunk and reach forward with your arms and rise to standing without using your hands to push off from the chair or other object.
Use your arms as a counter-balance by reaching forward when in sitting and lower them as you approach standing.
Suggested Dose: Perform 8-15 Sit to Stands and do this for 2-3 sets
 

 
 

Bridging:

While lying on your back with knees bent, tighten your lower abdominals, squeeze your buttocks and then raise your buttocks off the floor/bed as creating a “Bridge” with your body. Hold and then lower yourself and repeat.
Suggested Dose: 12 reps; 5 sec hold at the top and repeat 1-2 sets
 

Clamshells:

While lying on your side with your knees bent, draw up the top knee while keeping contact of your feet together.
Do not let your pelvis roll back during the lifting movement.
Suggested Dose: 12 reps; 5 sec hold at the top and repeat 1-2 sets
