Summary

This study looked at whether doing ankle exercises can improve how well you sense your knee's position and reduce pain in people with long-term knee pain. 114 adults aged 18 to 70 with knee pain for at least six months took part. They did either ankle exercises or knee exercises, and researchers measured pain and knee awareness right after.
