Injured boomers beware: Know when to see doctor (AP)

In this Feb. 10, 2012 photo, Jane Byron poses for a photograph in a park near her home in the Queens borough of New York. Byron, 51, a nurse, has had two knee replacements. Costly knee replacements have more than tripled in people aged 45-64 in recent years and a study released last week found that nearly 1 in 20 Americans older than 50 have these artificial joints. But active boomers can avoid that kind of drastic treatment by properly managing aches and pains. (AP Photo/Tina Fineberg)AP - It happened to nurse Jane Byron years after an in-line skating fall, business owner Haralee Weintraub while doing "men's" push-ups, and avid cyclist Gene Wilberg while lifting a heavy box.
