Physiotherapy for Knee Pain

Physiotherapy for Knee Pain

Understanding Knee Pain

Physiotherapy for knee pain is critical in managing various knee-related conditions, as the knee is a complex joint that bears much of the body’s weight and is essential for walking, running, and other movements. It is prone to various conditions that can cause pain and limit function. Common knee issues include ligament injuries, such as ACL or MCL tears, which can result from trauma or sports-related activities. Meniscal tears, where the cartilage in the knee joint is damaged, are also common, often causing pain, swelling, and difficulty moving the knee. Arthritis, including osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, can cause inflammation and degeneration of the knee joint, leading to chronic pain and stiffness. Other conditions, such as patellofemoral pain syndrome and bursitis, also contribute to knee discomfort, making knee pain relief an essential part of treatment.

How We Treat Knee Conditions

At Sai Healthcare Foundation, our approach to knee pain treatment starts with a thorough assessment to determine the specific cause of knee pain. Based on this evaluation, we create a personalized plan that includes physiotherapy for knee pain to strengthen the knee and improve stability. The treatment may involve exercise therapy, manual therapy to mobilize the joint and reduce pain, and cryotherapy to manage inflammation. Taping and bracing are used to provide additional support during recovery, while electrotherapy helps in pain management and tissue healing. Our goal is to provide effective knee pain relief and ensure patients regain full function in their knee, allowing them to return to their normal activities without pain.
