Climbing stairs is a very good work out! If you do not have very strong knee joints, I would suggest taking something like cod liver oil. This is very good for keeping strong healthy joints. Keep climbing stairs, and the more you do, the easier they will become. (Try not to over-do it though!)

Older people should get an evaluation from their physician and fitness trainer to make sure that they are ready to take up stair climbing as an exercise. This is particularly important for people who have been sedentary or have had injuries previously. Start with short sessions of stair climbing and gradually increase the duration and intensity as the muscles and joints get more conditioned. -Eliza8

Try swimming as an exercise.
Your knees may be red and hot after exercise due to increased blood flow to the area, which helps repair and nourish the muscles and tissues that were worked during the exercise. This can cause temporary inflammation and warmth in the knees.
Well it's normal..like the stuff that holds all your joints together is that white stuff, and when you get older those start to rust away..thats why old people need those sticks..because those arent there to support them!
Not necessarily. Of course, if you exercise improperly (such as bouncing at the bottom of a squat, in my opinion) you may injure your knees. Even assuming that you exercise properly, after several decades of training your knees may hurt a bit during exercise. This does not happen to everyone. If you always warm up properly and use perfect exercise technique, it may never happen to you. Exercise selection, too, is important. For example, it is a good idea never to do heavy leg raises because they really stress the knees. Even if your knees eventually hurt during training, there may be ways to work around it. For example, if regular back squats hurt your knees, switch to box squats. Box squats are much more difficult, which means that you will use less weight; using less weight means less stress on your knees.
Elliptical trainers are comparable to stair climbing machines but they offer less stress on your knees.
More bone usage going down, More musle usage going up.
There are several muscles involved in climbing stairs. Some of the most worked-on muscles are: gluteus maximus and the harmstrings. Additionally there are several more muscles involved located at the knees.
according to my research cervical exercise is the backbone of all spinal treatment. cervical exercise is when you go on your knees and bend your back backwards to exercise your spine.
you oviously use the joints in your knees and the motion of your hips to propel the movement of your legs

Incorporating hot knees exercise into your workout routine can help improve flexibility, strengthen your leg muscles, and increase blood flow to the knees, which may reduce the risk of injury and improve overall performance during physical activities.
