I have osteoarthritis in my knees & am totally bone on bone

Posted by Motormom @motormom, Aug 14, 2015

I have osteoarthritis in my knees & am totally bone on bone. I love to travel but find that sitting in the car for more than an hour with knees bent & no support under them is very painful. My body size restricts me from sitting in the back with legs up. Does anyone have suggestions as to what I could do to get some good support under my knees?

A wedge-shaped ‘pillow’, sit on the thin edge, thick edge elevating your knees. A neck-roll under your knees. Your feet on some kind of ‘riser’.
