Knee pain is a common issue affecting people of all ages, often caused by osteoarthritis, injuries (ligament/meniscus tears), or muscle strains around the knee joint.

​​​

Osteoarthritis leads to the breakdown of cartilage, which cushions the knee joint.

 

As this protective layer wears down, it can cause:

• Bone-on-bone contact & joint space narrowing

• Bone spurs (osteophytes) & inflammation

• Pain, stiffness, and swelling during movement

• Grinding or crepitus sensation when walking or using stairs

​

Patellofemoral pain sydrome (Runner' Knee) is a common overuse injury that causes pain around the kneecap, often worsened by running, squatting, or prolonged sitting.
