The good news is the pain & numbness does lessen with each successive dislocation, but be prepared for degenerative arthritis & a throbbing pain every once in a while.

The exercise that I found helped the most was stair climbing. It kept my knees strong and I can't recall them ever popping out when I was jotting up a few flights of stairs every day.
