Common Causes of Knee Pain:
- Osteoarthritis
- ACL, MCL, PCL, and other ligament injuries
- Torn Cartilage
- Patellar Tendonitis
- Popliteal cyst or Baker’s cyst
Although knee injuries are very common among athletes, they do not always occur while playing sports. Many people over the age of 30 experience trauma to the knee for a variety of reasons. This can cause painful swelling that makes standing or walking difficult.
Often, knee pain will start due to a sprain. This can quickly escalate to a very serious tear if not addressed immediately. Visit Farnsworth Physical Therapy to make sure that your knee problems do not become even more serious. We can help permanently eliminate knee pain!
