Step Forward Pain-Free
Expert Knee Pain Treatment At The White Hart Clinic
Knee pain is a common issue that can affect people of all ages. It can present as stiffness, swelling, instability or discomfort in or around the knee joint. This may make activities like walking, climbing stairs or squatting difficult. Knee pain is often caused by injury, overuse or age-related changes within the joint.
Common knee conditions that we treat:
- Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome: Pain behind or around the kneecap, often worse with stairs, squatting or prolonged sitting
- Ligament Injuries: Including ACL, MCL or LCL injuries, often caused by twisting or impact during sport
- Meniscal Tears: Damage to the cartilage that cushions the knee joint, leading to pain, locking or catching
- Knee Osteoarthritis: Degeneration of the joint cartilage causing pain, stiffness and swelling
- Patellar Tendinopathy: Pain just below the kneecap, commonly seen in running and jumping sports
- Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS): Pain on the outside of the knee due to irritation of the lower iliotibial band
- Bursitis: Inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs around the knee joint
