What causes knee pain?

​

There are many different things that can lead to knee pain, which is an incredibly common complaint. Your knees perform an essential role in mobility, and they sustain significant stress each day. While the knees are strong joints, they’re asked to do a lot, and numerous issues can cause knee pain.

​

Traumatic injury is a common cause of knee pain and can result from a sports injury, an auto accident, or something as simple as a trip and fall accident.

Additional sources of knee pain include:

• Injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)

• Knee bursitis

• Fractures

• Meniscus tears

• Patellar tendinitis

• Loose body in the joint

• Dislocated kneecap

• Arthritis

​

This is far from a comprehensive list. Anything that places pressure on the nerves within your knee or damages nerve tissue can cause or worsen knee pain.

​

What can I do to prevent knee pain?

​

While it may not be possible to prevent all types of knee pain, there are things you can do to reduce your risk. Taking precautions to avoid traumatic injury is a great place to begin. That means avoiding dangerous activities and altering your living environment as you age to reduce the risk of tripping and falling. 

If you’re an athlete or fitness enthusiast, make sure you incorporate exercises that strengthen and stabilize your knee joint to prevent injury. If you’re living with arthritis, seek treatment to manage inflammation. 

Reaching and maintaining a healthy weight can also relieve a great deal of pressure on your knees and other joints. Even choosing a healthier diet can lessen inflammation and reduce knee pain.

​

How is knee pain treated?

​

In some cases, joint damage must be surgically repaired. Other cases can be managed with physical therapy and lifestyle modifications. 

Once knee pain is present, it’s important to obtain an accurate diagnosis and pursue the right treatment path. Letting knee pain linger can lead to additional damage to your joint, including nerve damage. 

Many men and women want a knee pain treatment path that does not rely on pharmaceutical or surgical interventions. Fortunately, there are advanced medical technology tools that can deliver effective results and get you back on your feet.
