About Knee Pain & Arthritis
What Is Knee Pain and Arthritis?
Knee pain can develop due to an injury, overuse, inflammation, or age-related changes in the joint. Knee osteoarthritis occurs when the protective cartilage gradually wears down, causing pain, stiffness, swelling, and difficulty with everyday activities. If knee pain is affecting your ability to walk, climb stairs, or sleep comfortably, an orthopedic assessment can help identify the cause.
Common Causes of Knee Pain
Common causes include knee osteoarthritis, ligament injuries, meniscus tears, tendon problems, previous injuries, and repetitive strain. The right treatment depends on what is causing your pain, your activity level, and the extent of joint damage.

- Pain while walking or climbing stairs
- Stiffness after sitting or resting
