Knee pain can be caused by a sudden injury, an overuse injury, or by an underlying condition, such as arthritis. Treatment will vary depending on the cause. Symptoms of knee injury can include pain, swelling, and stiffness. Gout is a form of inflammatory arthritis that develops in some people who have high levels of uric acid in the blood. The acid can form needle-like crystals in a joint and cause sudden, severe episodes of pain, tenderness, redness, warmth and swelling. Excess pounds also cause existing arthritis to worsen more rapidly. According to the cdc, two out of three obese adults suffer from knee osteoarthritis at some time in their life. Although diet and exercise are critical for weight loss, it's a double-edged sword. The most common causes include inflammation caused by improper lifting of heavy objects, poor flexibility, bad shoes, muscle weakness, starting high-impact fitness routines without warming up and structural knee problems, such as arthritis, torn cartilage or ligament damage. Advice - 1. Don't skip the exercise, even if you have a structural problem. 2. Whether you're active or not, stretching is good for the knees. 3. Losing weight can improve knee pain. 4. Wearing the proper shoes is important for healthy knees. 5. Stand up straight to feel better. Orthomuv ointments or gels sbl - apply affected area and massage gently 3-4 times a day.

Advice. Avoid sitting cross legged. Avoid squatting- quadriceps exercises- lie straight, make a towel role and put it under the knee, press the keen against the role, hold it for 20 secs. Repeat 20 times twice a day. This will help relieve some pain. Core strengthening exercise- straight leg raised with toes turned outward, repeat 10 times, twice a day. Hams stretching- lie straight, take the leg up, pull the feet towards yourself, with a elastic tube or normal belt. Repeat 10 times, twice a day. Sports taping- stretch the tape from both ends and apply on the affected area contrast fomentation (hot and cold).
