There are a variety of reasons you can develop ongoing pain in your knee, including:
- Sprains
- Arthritis
- Fractures
- Infections
- ACL injuries
- Inflammation
- Tendon tears
In some cases, excess pressure on the knee joints from being overweight or repetitive motions from sports can result in chronic knee pain and disability.
What treatments are available for knee pain?
Your custom treatment plan focuses on the cause of pain, with the goal to alleviate pain and associated symptoms so you can regain your mobility. Your provider may recommend injections that contain a local anesthetic and steroids. These medications go directly into the joint to reduce inflammation and provide long-lasting pain relief.
