Ask a PT Response: "Here is another link to some basic exercises for knee: http://www.physioadvisor.com.au/8119350/knee-strengthening-exercises-knee-rehabilitation.htm

For calf, standing heel raises and balance exercises (ie. on a disc, bosu ball, etc) are some exercises which I would give my patients."
