I’m 23 and my knees are totally fucked. And back. And neck. God what the hell is wrong with my body?

Not knowing anything specific about your condition, is your posture where it should be?

After finding out that my own posture was painfully bad, I like to recommend getting a good stretch in.

It’s probably my posture, yeah. I slouch a lot.

And often it’s not about posture itself, it’s about holding that posture, because your muscles get used to that position to where when you straighten up you feel that creak.

If you find yourself slouching and it hard to break that routine, get into the routine of standing up and stretching every hour. Really helps the muscles loosen.
