Ashok Rajgopal, chairman of the Bone and Joint Institute in Medanta-The Medicity, says, “Deep knee bends can lead to wear and tear of the knee joints ultimately calling for a knee replacement surgery.” He said, “Many yoga gurus have undergone knee replacement surgeries with us because of this excess wear and tear.” Deep knee bends impose pressure on the cartilage, which degenrates knee joints. |
