Summary

This study tests two types of leg exercises—closed chain and open chain—done with a blood flow restriction cuff on the thigh, to see which better reduces pain and improves movement in people with mild knee osteoarthritis. Forty adults aged 45-75 with grade 1 or 2 knee OA will be split into two groups and exercise for 4 weeks. The goal is to find a simple, drug-free way to ease symptoms and boost daily function.
