Knee pain is the inflammation of the knees and it affects the cartilage and ligaments of the knees.

It is a painful or unbearable situation around the knees. Different age groups are affected due to this but this problem is found more in the old age. Due to the weakness in the muscles this problem arises in old age people. The changing life style is also one of the main reasons behind it. Knees are the joints of the body which bears all the burden of the body and sometimes it results in heavy pain in knees. Stiffness and pain in the knees are felt during this. Deep injuries around the knees can also be the reason for the knees pain which further affect the tendons and ligaments.
Knee pain is also caused by the heavy weight of the individual which results in lack of flexibility in muscles and due to which the problem arises in the movement and even in standing. Some people face this problem due to the sports activities which exert more burden on the knees. It has been observed that the temporary knee pain can be cured easily but serious knee pain is a major concern. Physical factors like osteoarthritis and tendinitis are also the causes of knee pain. Stretching of the muscles in various sport activities can leads to the knee pain.
Three categories of knee pain:
- Acute Injuries
- Ligament Injuries
- Meniscus injuries
