Knee Pain
Knee pain is the second most common cause of chronic pain, and it occurs in more than 100 Million people. It is one of the top reasons for visiting a doctor. Home care for knee pain such as rest, ice, and elevation may result in some relief but if pain or dysfunction becomes worse you may need to take further action.
Knee pain becomes a problem when it forces you to change your routine or daily activities.
- Pain walking up or down stairs
- Knee pain after sitting for long periods of time
- The feeling of your knee going "out" all of a sudden (instability)
- Crunching, popping, or clicking when walking
Commonly our patients are looking to avoid:
- Repetitive cortisone injections
- Medication with harmful side-effects
- Risky or failed total knee replacement surgery
