Cardio exercises strengthen the muscles that support your knee and increase flexibility. Weight training and stretching do, too. For cardio, some good choices include walking, swimming and water aerobics, stationary cycling and elliptical machines. Tai chi may also help ease stiffness and improve balance.

*Hydrocephalus facts medical author: Melissa Conrad StÃ¶ppler, MD. Hydrocephalus is a condition characterized by excessive accumulation of fluid in the brain. Hydrocephalus may be congenital or acquired. Communicating hydrocephalus occurs when cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) can still flow among the ventricles. Noncommunicating hydrocephalus, also called obstructive hydrocephalus, occurs when the flow of CSF is blocked. Hydrocephalus affects about 1 out of every 500 children. The most obvious indication of hydrocephalus in children and infants is often a rapid increase in head circumference or an unusually large head size.
