Knee Arthritis Injury
Arthritis (Osteoarthritis) is a common cause of knee pain and knee swelling that usually manifests itself in middle age. Knee arthritis is characterised by progressive knee joint degeneration that may be due to knee overuse or secondary to a knee injury such as an ACL injury or a Cartilage injury.
Eventually, knee replacement surgery may be required where there is severe knee pain, although knee exercises and physical therapy rehabilitation are very helpful.
Common Knee Arthritis signs & symptoms:
- History of previous knee injury or knee surgery.
- Knee pain and knee swelling related to overdoing activities.
- Knee stiffness, particularly in cold weather.
