Knee
Knee pain is a common issue that may result from injury, inflammation, joint degeneration (osteoarthritis), or strain of the muscles and tendons. Patients often experience pain during movement, especially when climbing stairs or standing for long periods. The pain may be accompanied by swelling or stiffness in the joint. The severity of the pain varies depending on the cause and may be temporary or chronic. Medical evaluation is necessary to determine the appropriate treatment.
