Knee pain is classified as pain anywhere around the knee. The knee is a complex joint that although very strong is a little more vulnerable to injury than other joints.
Ligaments, tendons, muscles and cartilage can all cause pain and inflammation if overloaded or strained.
Swelling, redness and pain on weightbearing and bending the knee can often indicate inflammation or even damage to the different knee structures. Careful examination and testing can enable your osteopath to identify the likely cause of the problem. They will then be able to provide the most appropriate form of treatment and management for you. This is normally possible in our clinics but on occasion we do refer patients for further investigation or treatment. Treatment options will be discussed with you during your appointment.
