Knee pain can arise from a variety of factors, and identifying the root cause is essential to developing an effective treatment plan. Below are some of the most common conditions that contribute to knee pain:

  • Osteoarthritis: One of the leading causes of knee pain, osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint condition that results from the breakdown of cartilage. This leads to pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced mobility. As we age, the cartilage that cushions the knee joint naturally wears down, making osteoarthritis a common issue for older adults.
  • Meniscus Tears: The meniscus is a piece of cartilage in the knee that acts as a shock absorber between the bones. A meniscus tear is often caused by sudden twisting or pivoting movements, making it a common injury in sports. It can also occur gradually due to degeneration over time. Symptoms include pain, swelling, and difficulty moving the knee.
  • Patellar Tendinitis: Also known as “jumper’s knee,” patellar tendinitis is an overuse injury that occurs when the patellar tendon becomes inflamed or irritated. This condition often affects athletes or individuals who engage in repetitive jumping or running activities. It causes pain at the front of the knee, particularly during movement.
  • Ligament Injuries (ACL, MCL, PCL): The knee is stabilized by several ligaments, including the ACL (anterior cruciate ligament), MCL (medial collateral ligament), and PCL (posterior cruciate ligament). Injuries to these ligaments, especially the ACL, are common in sports and can cause severe knee pain, instability, and limited movement. Such injuries often require rehabilitation or surgery.
  • Bursitis: Bursitis occurs when the small, fluid-filled sacs (bursae) around the knee joint become inflamed. This can result from repetitive pressure on the knee or from a direct impact. Bursitis causes pain, swelling, and tenderness, particularly when kneeling or moving the joint.
  • Runner’s Knee (Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome): A runner’s knee is a condition characterized by pain around the kneecap, particularly after activities that involve running, squatting, or climbing stairs. It is caused by overuse, misalignment, or improper movement of the kneecap, leading to irritation in the surrounding tissues.

At Physiatrics Pain Clinic, we are committed to helping you overcome knee pain through a combination of advanced therapeutic techniques and customized physical therapy programs. Here’s how we can help:

  • Thorough Assessment and Diagnosis: Our experts begin with a detailed evaluation of your knee pain, including physical assessments and diagnostic imaging if necessary. We take the time to understand the underlying cause of your pain, ensuring that we develop a treatment plan tailored specifically to your condition.
  • State-of-the-Art Technology for Pain Relief: We utilize the latest therapeutic machines to provide non-invasive treatments for knee pain. These technologies include:
    • Ultrasound Therapy: Helps reduce pain and inflammation by promoting tissue healing through deep heat generation.
    • Laser Therapy: Stimulates cellular repair and reduces inflammation, accelerating the healing process.
    • Electromagnetic Stimulation: Improves blood flow and reduces muscle tension around the knee, helping alleviate pain and stiffness.
  • Personalized Physical Therapy Programs: Physical therapy plays a key role in treating knee pain by strengthening the muscles around the knee joint and improving flexibility. Our experienced physiotherapists will design a personalized exercise regimen to help you regain mobility, reduce pain, and prevent further injury. These exercises focus on building strength in the quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves while improving balance and stability.
  • Manual Therapy and Soft Tissue Techniques: In addition to machine-based treatments, we offer manual therapy to target specific areas of tension or stiffness in the knee. Our therapists use hands-on techniques such as myofascial release and joint mobilization to enhance mobility, reduce pain, and accelerate recovery.
  • Education and Preventive Care: We believe in empowering our patients with the knowledge and tools needed to manage knee pain and prevent future issues. Our team will guide proper posture, movement techniques, and lifestyle adjustments to protect your knees from further strain or injury. This includes advice on footwear, ergonomic changes, and exercises to maintain strength and flexibility.

At Physiatrics Pain Clinic, we combine cutting-edge technology with expert physical therapy to provide comprehensive care for knee pain. Our approach focuses on both relieving your current pain and preventing future complications by addressing the root cause of the issue.
