Understanding Knee Pain Together
Knee pain is a common issue that can be caused by various factors such as overuse, injury, or underlying conditions like arthritis. Whether it’s a sudden injury, a chronic ache, or stiffness that limits your mobility, knee pain can make even simple tasks challenging. If you’re experiencing knee pain, it’s important to address it early to avoid further complications.
Common Knee Conditions
Osteoarthritis - Degeneration of the cartilage in the knee joint, leading to pain, stiffness, and swelling.
Ligament Injuries - Injuries to the ACL, MCL, or other ligaments from sports or trauma can cause instability and pain.
Patellar Tendinitis - Inflammation of the tendon connecting the kneecap to the shinbone, often caused by repetitive movement.
Meniscus Tear - A tear in the cartilage of the knee joint, typically resulting from twisting or heavy lifting.
Bursitis - Inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs in the knee, causing swelling and discomfort.
