3 Common Causes of Knee Pain

Here are three common causes of knee pain:

  1. Misalignment: A misalignment in your body is among the main causes of unexplained knee pain. You might have misaligned hips, knees, or ankles, causing poor posture and uneven weight distribution on your knee.
  1. Untreated injury: Another common cause of knee pain is an untreated injury. This could include damaged ligaments, muscle tears, fractures, etc.
  1. Underlying conditions: There can also be underlying conditions causing your knee pain, including degenerative diseases, inflammatory diseases, and more. It could also be simply poor posture each day putting excess pressure on your knee to cause the pain.

No matter what the cause of your knee pain may be, we can identify and treat the cause of the pain, so the pain in your knee can be diminished or eliminated as well. We can also offer orthotic braces or foot orthotics that might remedy the pain as well. You can give us a call if you would like to learn more.
