It took me years to figure out how to manage my pain. I still struggle with it, especially during rain, snow and winter. The more toned and stretched my muscles are, the better. I also do 2 days of cardio per week. I can only exercise for about 45 minutes at a time about 3-4 days a week, with one day in-between to avoid more pain and flare-ups.

As a sidenote, my favorite types of exercise include PIYo, Pound class, Zumba and swimming.
