Heat helps to relax tense muscles and soothe a stiff area. It can help with muscle pain and arthritis in the shoulder. Use a heated gel pack, heating pad or a hot water bottle.

Stiffness might have developed due to the weakness of the ligaments & inflamed cartilage. Specific knee exercises will also help i.e Keeping ball underneath the knee and keep pressing it. That's the simple exercise which will help you to strengthen the knee.
