Your knees are possibly dry and need some lotion, alot of times my knees and elbows turn a brownish color because it is dry skin.

Plie squats are good.  Also leg lifts.  Lay on your side with your legs out straight.  Cross the top leg over with your foot flat on the floor by your knee.  Lift the bottom leg toward the crossed over leg.  You can add a weight on your thigh for more resistance.

Just do them every day and try to go a little further every time. Also If you wear socks or pajamas with long legs your feet will slide out further, making you feet separate more

I HAD THAT EXACT PROBLEM YEARS AGO. TRY WALKING THE STAIRS. USE THE STAIRS AS A FORM OF EXERCISE. IT WILL NOT ONLY THIN YOUR THIGHS BUT IT'LL ALSO LIFT YOUR BUTT.

You can try cross-training with biking to strengthen your quads and hamstrings.  That might help with your knee issues.  Also make sure that you are wearing good shoes and the right type for your feet.  I tend to get some pain when my shoes are wearing out.\n\nDon't forget RICE for pain--rest, ice, compression, and elevate.

That's not possible.  My husband is 6'2" and his legs are only 36. At least that's what jeans he wears

Varicose veins don't show up as noticeably on darker skin.  A self-tanner or bronzer might help.\n\n\nAnd if you're going to Greece, you won't know anybody there anyway - don't worry too much about them.  Go and have fun.

Funny, I have sometimes thought it would be better if my skin was darker ...so I wouldn't burn in the sun....However, I think anything that would lighten skin might damage skin...I wouldn't mess with it.  But if you feel the need I would talk to a dermatologist.

yes and no.  If there is constant tension on the quads, meaning you legs are slight bent, then yes.  If there isnt constant tension on the quads, then no.  You would get better results from doing elevated lunges with small weights.

the back of your knee isnt as strong as the front of the knee

Weight can have something to do with knee problems. It could also be something else, too. Talk to your Dr. He can find the reason and recommend a medication for it.

You can change the settings on your computer to darken the things in on the screen. For example, I have my computer set to having a dark purple background and grey writing. Of your computer is a PC (not a mac/apple), you can do this by right clicking on your desk top and select properties. Then click on the appearance tab on the top of your window. To the lower right of the window there will be a button that says advanced. Click on that and you can change what you want from that window. To avoid strain on your back, get a posturepedic chair if you can afford it. You might also want to look into taking up Tai Chi. It's a slow and graceful martial art. It will help to improve your posture.

I have had knee trouble since about the age of 9.  My doctor has told me since then that I need to do knee excercises.  To do this lay on your bed or couch and let the leg bend over the edge.  Slowly lift your leg until it is straight.  Hold for a second or two and repeat.  After a few weeks you can start adding weights to your ankles and continue doing the excercises.  This isolates the muscles in your knees.  25 lbs is the amount recommended.

Step way forward with one leg and bend your body forward over your knee...then stand up and do the other leg..repeat....The best is stairs....climb lots of stairs

just get some women's trouser socks (they're thicker than knee highs) and cut them up.  Presto... you have Hardy armbands.
