During his talk at the Lianhe Zaobao LOHAS Health Seminar, Dr Kevin Lee gave the analogy of an empty coconut husk to help the audience understand the significance and impact of an injured knee joint. "Like an opened and empty coconut husk, the structure of the injured knee joint is incomplete and affects one's movement," Dr Kevin shared to the 600 audience present at the seminar. He also showed the audience a video footage of knee arthroscopy procedure. Dr Kevin Lee has also given many international talks as an invited speaker in Southeast Asia, including Indonesia and Vietnam. Contact us for his next health seminar.

Dr Kevin Lee has been invited to talk about "The Painful Knee - Cartilage Problems, Arthritis & Sports Injuries" at the Lianhe ZaoBao LOHAS Mega Health Seminar on 11th October 2014. This talk will be in Mandarin.  

In a Mind Your Body (Straits Times) article on June 26  2014, Dr Kevin Lee addresses a reader's concern on relief and treatment of osteoathritis in the hand and knees.

The reader has been an active sportsman since 20, but developed early osteoarthritis in both knees at 40. Physiotherapy did not help and he stopped exercising with his hurting knees. He recently developed Heberden's nodes on his fingers. He asked Dr Lee on what can be done to lessen the pain from knee osteoarthritis and fingers.

Dr Lee suspects that the reader has osteoarthritis in both his hands and knees. Heberden's nodes are a common sign of osteoarthritis in the hand. For the treatment of osteoarthritis, the usual treatments include weight loss, activity modification, joint supplements like collagen or herbal preparations, injections of hyaluronic acid and physiotherapy.

This product has been 2 years in the making and it is ideal for the following patients:

1. Those suffering from arthritis (osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis) or cartilage injuries.

2. Endurance sports athletes looking for a natural solution to post-exercise joint and muscle inflammation.
