Where is My Knee Pain Coming From?
Knee pain is a common issue that can stem from various causes, often requiring knee physical therapy to alleviate discomfort and restore mobility. Several conditions can lead to the need for physical therapy, including traumatic injuries such as ligament tears (ACL or MCL), meniscus tears, or fractures, which can result in significant pain and instability.
Other Conditions Treated with Knee Physical Therapy
Overuse injuries, like patellar tendinitis or bursitis, and chronic conditions such as arthritis can cause knee pain, stiffness, and swelling, making physical therapy essential for improving mobility. Other factors like gout or mechanical issues, such as kneecap misalignment, can further contribute to knee discomfort.
Knee physical therapy plays a vital role in addressing these conditions, helping patients regain strength, flexibility, and proper movement patterns.
