Knee pain is a common musculoskeletal condition that can develop suddenly after an injury or gradually over time. It may be caused by overuse, sports injuries, arthritis, tendon problems, or changes affecting the knee joint.
Identifying the underlying cause is the first step towards effective treatment and lasting relief.
Knee pain can have a number of possible causes, including:
Sports and Exercise Injuries
Ligament Or Meniscus Injuries
Knee Osteoarthritis
Tendon Irritation Or Overuse
Patellofemoral (Kneecap) Pain
Injury Or Trauma
Muscle Weakness Or Joint Instability
Repetitive Strain From Work Or Daily Activities
Knee pain can affect your mobility, confidence, and ability to carry out everyday activities. Following a detailed assessment, we'll identify the source of your symptoms and recommend the most appropriate treatment for your condition.
