According to recent studies, over 100 million people suffer from chronic knee pain each year. And it's been increasing by 65% over the past 20 years. This includes common issues such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bone-on-bone, tendonitis and bursitis.

The knees absorb a massive amount of pressure with every step. That pressure, along with regular wear and tear, takes a toll over time.

But does that mean every senior is destined to have swollen, painful joints? And what's causing the spike in knee pain over the past 20 years? 

Research has found there are things that make knee pain worse. And some of the things on this list may surprise you...

Here are the top 5 things they've found that make knee pain worse...

The average American has put on more than 20lbs in the last 20 years....

Weight gain puts a lot more pressure and wear on your back, hips, knees, and all your lower body joints. A professor at the John Hopkins says that being just 10 pounds overweight increases the force on your knees by 30 to 40 with every step you take. 

This increase in force and pressure on your joints adds up quick and can lead to sharp increases in joint pain. 

Over a few years, a team of researchers studied millions of Americans walk - and they found that 99% of people walk with overpronated feet...

Years of walking like this leads to chronic foot pain, knee pain, and even back and neck pain. 

Overpronated feet misalign your joints and prevent your body from being able to absorb shock. Putting a dangerous amount of pressure on your knees and surrounding joints...

This added pressure gradually wears down cartilage and causing stiff, achy, bone on bone knees. 

Thanks to the data the researchers collected, a special insole has been created to help anyone with overpronated feet to get relief.  

It's made with a special U-shaped design to realign your foot and ankle and relieve the pressure off your knees.

There's been a lot of back and forth on the side effects of painkillers, but the data doesn't lie! 

Dozens and dozens of studies make it clear that NSAIDs have a significantly negative effect on cartilage matrix which causes an acceleration of the deterioration of articular cartilage in osteoarthritic joints.

Authors even note that massive NSAID use in osteoarthritic patients since their introduction over the past forty years is one of the main causes of the rapid rise in the need for hip and knee replacements both now and in the near future!

NSAIDs are causing the very issues they're supposed to be "helping"

Luckily, research has led to a handful of doctors working on a natural replacement to painkillers.

Inflammation is the silent killer of joints. Inflammation is what causes stiff, swollen, achy knees and it even prevents your joints from repairing themselves! 

So what's causing all the inflammation? 

Diet is the main cause of excessive inflammation. Processed meats like bacon, hot dogs, and lunch meats, fried foods, sodas, and things like white bread and refined grains all cause spikes in inflammation. 

And while cleaning up your diet will do a lot to lower chronic inflammation, research shows that with age comes more inflammation. 

So is there anything you can do to combat inflammation? 

New studies have found a handful of special compounds that flush out joint inflammation in minutes. These compounds even keep inflammation out of your joints for up to 12 hours! 

Relieving you of chronic joint pain and even giving your joints the time they need to begin repair themselves. 

Putting these special compounds on your knees everyday has even shown to increase the amount of joint cartilage and relieve the pain of bone on bone knees!
