A locked knee is a condition in which the knee joint becomes stuck in a bent position and cannot be fully extended. This can be a painful and debilitating condition, making it difficult to walk, climb stairs, or perform other everyday activities. There are a number of different ways to unlock a locked knee, including home remedies, physical therapy, and surgery.
One of the most common home remedies for a locked knee is to apply heat to the joint. This can help to relax the muscles and ligaments around the knee, making it easier to move. You can apply heat using a heating pad, a hot water bottle, or by taking a warm bath. Another home remedy is to massage the knee. This can help to break up any adhesions that may be causing the knee to lock. You can massage the knee yourself or ask a friend or family member to help you.
