Knee Problems & Joint Pain

Knee pain is one of the most common orthopedic problems and can significantly affect mobility, independence, and overall quality of life. Everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs, standing for long periods, exercising, or even getting up from a chair may become painful and difficult. Knee problems may develop due to sports injuries, ligament tears, cartilage damage, arthritis, age-related wear and tear, or overuse of the joint.

We specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide range of knee conditions using advanced clinical evaluation, digital imaging, physiotherapy guidance, non-surgical treatments, injections, arthroscopic (keyhole) procedures, and surgical solutions whenever necessary. Our goal is to reduce pain, restore knee stability, improve movement, and help patients safely return to normal daily activities.

Common Knee Conditions We Treat

01

Knee Ligament Injuries (ACL, PCL, MCL & LCL)

The ligaments of the knee help stabilize the joint and control movement during walking, running, jumping, and sports activities. Injuries to these ligaments commonly occur during sports, sudden twisting movements, road accidents, or falls.

Symptoms May Include:

  • ➜ Sudden knee pain after injury
  • ➜ Swelling around the knee
  • ➜ Instability or “giving way” sensation
  • ➜ Difficulty walking or changing direction
  • ➜ Reduced confidence during movement

Diagnosis may include clinical examination, X-rays, MRI scans, and stability assessment tests to evaluate the severity of the injury.

Treatment Options:

  • ➜ Knee bracing and support
  • ➜ Physiotherapy rehabilitation
  • ➜ Strengthening and balance exercises
  • ➜ Sports rehabilitation programs
  • ➜ Arthroscopic ligament reconstruction surgery when required

The aim is to restore knee stability, improve strength, and help patients safely return to daily activities and sports.

02
Meniscus Injuries
The meniscus is a cushioning cartilage structure inside the knee that helps absorb shock and protect the joint surfaces. Meniscus injuries commonly occur due to twisting movements, sports injuries, sudden squatting, or age-related degeneration.

Common Causes

  • ➜ Twisting movements
  • ➜ Sports injuries
  • ➜ Sudden squatting
  • ➜ Age-related degeneration

Common Symptoms

  • ➜ Knee pain during movement
  • ➜ Swelling and stiffness
  • ➜ Clicking or locking sensation
  • ➜ Difficulty squatting or climbing stairs
  • ➜ Reduced knee flexibility
  • ➜ Knee getting stuck or painful during movement

Diagnosis

  • ➜ Physical examination
  • ➜ MRI imaging
  • ➜ Joint movement assessment

Treatment Options

  • ➜ Rest and activity modification
  • ➜ Physiotherapy rehabilitation
  • ➜ Pain management treatments
  • ➜ Strengthening exercises
  • ➜ Arthroscopic meniscus repair or trimming procedures if necessary

Early diagnosis and treatment can help preserve knee function and reduce further cartilage damage.

03
Knee Pain While Walking Or Climbing Stairs
Pain during walking, climbing stairs, standing for long periods, or getting up from a seated position is a common symptom associated with multiple knee conditions.

Possible Causes

  • ➜ Cartilage wear and tear
  • ➜ Muscle weakness
  • ➜ Joint inflammation
  • ➜ Patellar tracking problems
  • ➜ Early arthritis changes

Common Symptoms

  • ➜ Pain around the front or inner side of the knee
  • ➜ Stiffness after prolonged sitting
  • ➜ Difficulty using stairs
  • ➜ Weakness while walking
  • ➜ Reduced mobility during daily activities

Treatment Focus

  • ➜ Identifying underlying cause
  • ➜ Improving joint stability
  • ➜ Reducing pain and inflammation
  • ➜ Restoring mobility
Treatment focuses on improving joint function through physiotherapy, strengthening, and lifestyle modifications .

Management options may include:

➜ Physiotherapy and muscle strengthening
➜ Weight management guidance
➜ Pain relief medications
➜ Mobility improvement exercises
➜ Knee support and rehabilitation programs

The goal is to reduce discomfort, improve joint support, and restore smooth knee movement.
04
Arthritis-Related Knee Pain
Knee arthritis is a common degenerative condition where the cartilage inside the joint gradually wears down, leading to pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced mobility.

Common Types

  • ➜ Osteoarthritis
  • ➜ Rheumatoid arthritis
  • ➜ Post-traumatic arthritis

Common Symptoms

  • ➜ Chronic knee pain
  • ➜ Morning stiffness
  • ➜ Swelling and tenderness
  • ➜ Grinding or cracking sensation
  • ➜ Difficulty walking or standing for long periods
  • ➜ Reduced quality of life with progression

Diagnosis

  • ➜ Clinical examination
  • ➜ Weight-bearing X-rays
  • ➜ MRI or advanced imaging in selected cases
Treatment options may include physiotherapy, medications, injections, arthroscopy, and knee replacement surgery .

Management focuses on pain relief, joint preservation, and improving long-term mobility through personalized treatment plans.
05
Sports-Related Knee Injuries
Sports activities place significant stress on the knee joint and may lead to ligament injuries, meniscus tears, tendon strain, cartilage damage, or instability.

Commonly Affected Individuals

  • ➜ Football players
  • ➜ Cricket players
  • ➜ Runners
  • ➜ Basketball athletes
  • ➜ Gym and fitness enthusiasts

Symptoms May Include

  • ➜ Knee swelling after activity
  • ➜ Pain during running or jumping
  • ➜ Instability during sports movement
  • ➜ Reduced strength and flexibility
  • ➜ Difficulty returning to sports performance

Treatment Focus

  • ➜ Accurate injury assessment
  • ➜ Sports rehabilitation programs
  • ➜ Strengthening and conditioning exercises
  • ➜ Physiotherapy-guided recovery
  • ➜ Arthroscopic treatment for severe injuries
The goal is to safely restore knee function and reduce the risk of future injury .
06
Patellar Instability & Cartilage Injuries
The patella (kneecap) plays an important role in smooth knee movement. Patellar instability occurs when the kneecap moves out of its normal position, while cartilage injuries may damage the smooth surfaces inside the knee joint.
