About
Knee pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints, affecting people across all ages and activity levels. Causes range from osteoarthritis and ligament injuries to patellar tendinopathy and bursitis. The knee is a complex joint under significant load, making it vulnerable to both acute injury and chronic wear-related conditions.
What it feels like
Pain at the front, back, or sides of the knee
Swelling or puffiness around the kneecap
Stiffness and difficulty bending or straightening the knee fully
Clicking, popping, or grinding sensation during movement
Instability or giving way under load
When to get help
See a doctor for acute severe knee pain with significant swelling, inability to bear weight, obvious deformity, or locking of the joint — these suggest serious ligament, meniscus, or bone injury requiring prompt assessment.
