hi,

I don't think the gel will interfere with any of the other systems. Try doing some regular exercises to strengthen the knee muscles and your husband will be fine without any pain and aches. later on try an aerobics which will help lower the high blood pressure and even improve the diabeties level. he will be much helped with exercises which will be designed to go graded.
I find this answer helpful
