Knee Pain Q & A

What is knee pain?

Knee pain is one of the most common complaints from people of all ages and activity levels. Depending on the cause of your condition, you may experience a variety of symptoms, including:

  • Swelling
  • Limited mobility
  • Pain or stiffness
  • Reduced strength
  • Restricted movement

In some cases, knee pain can worsen due to specific actions or from standing after sitting for an extended period.

What causes knee pain?

Several factors can cause knee pain. Typical sources of knee pain include:

  • Gout
  • Sprains
  • Overuse
  • Fractures
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Car accidents
  • Slips and falls
  • Tears in ligaments or cartilage
  • Sports or recreational activities

Without proper treatment, some knee pain can take years to heal.

How is knee pain treated?

Dr. Roofian treats your knee pain based on its cause.

ACL injury

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) connects your femur to your shinbone. If the ligament is only partially torn, Dr. Roofian might recommend nonsurgical treatments like physical therapy and orthotics. With ACL injuries where knee instability is an issue, Dr. Roofian may suggest surgery.

Torn meniscus

The meniscus is the tough cartilage between your shin and thigh bones and is particularly susceptible to tears and injuries. Depending on your activity level, the severity of the damage, and location of the tear, Dr. Roofian might recommend physical therapy and orthotics to aid in healing. In severe cases, surgery may be required.

Hip or foot injury

Chronic hip or foot pain can cause you to alter the way you walk in an attempt to lessen your discomfort. This puts new stress on your knee, leading to joint pain. Dr. Roofian might suggest orthotics or hip or foot treatment to correct your gait.

Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative arthritis, is the most common type of arthritis. It occurs when the cartilage in your hips, knees, elbows, or shoulders breaks down. Dr. Roofian might suggest physical therapy, braces, or corticosteroid injections to reduce inflammation. In severe cases, he may recommend surgery to replace the knee joint or remove damaged cartilage.
