Rheumatic Diseases

A study found that childhood obesity was significantly associated with adult knee pain in men and childhood weight and body mass index (BMI) were associated with stiffness and dysfunction. Subjects who were overweight in both childhood and adult life had a significant increase in the adulthood walking knee pain compared with those who had normal weight in both childhood and adult life. These associations were most notable in males. These indicate the importance of reducing childhood obesity in preventing adulthood knee symptoms.
