Knee Pain
What is
Knee Pain ?
Knee pain is a common condition that affects people of all ages, ranging from mild discomfort to debilitating pain that impacts mobility and quality of life. It can occur due to injury, overuse, or underlying conditions like knee arthritis. At its core, knee pain involves inflammation, strain, or damage to the structures of the knee joint, including bones, cartilage, ligaments, or tendons.
Whether dealing with arthritis in the knee or recovering from knee injuries, our team is dedicated to helping you regain a pain-free, active lifestyle.
Symptoms of
Knee Pain
If you experience persistent symptoms, seeking professional advice is essential to identify the root cause and start the right knee pain treatment. The symptoms of knee pain vary depending on the cause but may include:
- Swelling or a swollen knee.
- Redness or warmth around the joint.
- Decreased range of motion or difficulty walking.
- Instability or a feeling that the knee might "give out”.
- Sharp or dull pain in the knee during activity or rest.
- Stiffness or difficulty bending and straightening the knee.
Types of
Knee Pain
There are various knee pain types. Pain on inside of knee when bending and straightening is often linked to medial meniscus injuries, ligament issues, or inflammation in the joint. Knee pain when walking may indicate joint inflammation, ligament strain, or early signs of arthritis that require medical evaluation. Pain when bending knee can result from overuse, cartilage damage, or underlying conditions like bursitis or tendonitis. Understanding the types of knee pain helps in tailoring the most effective treatment approach.
- Acute Knee Pain
Sudden onset, often from knee injuries such as ligament tears, fractures, or dislocations.
- Chronic Knee Pain
Long-term pain, often linked to conditions like knee arthritis or repetitive strain injuries.
- Referred Pain
Discomfort stemming from issues in other areas like the hips or lower back.

Caused by joint misalignment or cartilage damage.
