Knee Pain: A Common Complaint with Varied Causes
Knee pain is a frequent issue affecting individuals of all ages, significantly impacting mobility and daily activities. This discomfort can arise from various sources, often categorized into acute injuries, chronic conditions, or degenerative diseases.
-
Ligament Injuries: Such as ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) or MCL (medial collateral ligament) tears, often caused by sudden twists or turns, especially common in sports.
Meniscal Tears: Resulting from forcefully twisting or rotating the knee, commonly seen in athletes.
Fractures: The kneecap (patella) is vulnerable to fractures during falls or direct impacts.
-
Tendinitis: Inflammation of tendons, typically the patellar tendon, often seen in runners and cyclists.
Bursitis: Inflammation of the bursae, the small sacs of fluid cushioning the knee joint, usually due to repeated pressure or overuse.
-
Osteoarthritis: The most common arthritis type affecting the knee, resulting from wear and tear of the cartilage.
Rheumatoid Arthritis: An autoimmune condition causing joint inflammation, including in the knees.
-
Muscle Weakness/Imbalance: Weak quadriceps or hamstring muscles can lead to knee pain by affecting joint stability.
Overuse: Repetitive stress on the knee joint, often seen in certain sports or occupations.
Age-Related Changes: With age, the resilience of cartilage diminishes, and muscle strength decreases, contributing to knee discomfort.
The knee is a complex joint, and pain can arise from issues in the bones, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, or muscles surrounding it. Identifying the specific cause is crucial in determining the most effective treatment approach. At STEMS Health, our expert team assesses each case to understand the underlying reasons for knee pain, ensuring a targeted and effective treatment plan.
