What Are the Common Conditions That Cause Knee Pain?

Knee pain can result from injuries, degenerative changes, muscular imbalances, or even faulty foot biomechanics. Here's a look at the most common causes of knee pain we treat at Physio360:


1. Osteoarthritis of the Knee

  • Degeneration of cartilage over time

  • Common in individuals over 50

  • Causes stiffness, swelling, and pain with movement

  • Early intervention can delay knee replacement


2. Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (Runner’s Knee)

  • Pain around or behind the kneecap

  • Worsens with stair climbing, squatting, or sitting for long

  • Caused by poor alignment, weak quadriceps, or overuse


3. Ligament Injuries (ACL, PCL, MCL, LCL)

  • Sudden twisting injuries or trauma

  • Symptoms: instability, swelling, and pain

  • Often seen in athletes and active individuals


4. Meniscus Tear

  • Injury to the cartilage cushioning the knee

  • Caused by twisting motions or degenerative wear

  • May cause locking, clicking, or difficulty straightening the knee


5. Iliotibial Band (ITB) Syndrome

  • Overuse injury causing pain on the outer side of the knee

  • Common in runners and cyclists

  • Tight IT band causes friction over the knee joint


6. Patellar Tendinitis (Jumper’s Knee)

  • Inflammation of the tendon connecting the kneecap to the shinbone

  • Caused by repetitive jumping or high-impact sports

  • Pain typically felt below the kneecap


7. Bursitis

  • Inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs (bursae) around the knee

  • Pain with kneeling, pressure, or movement

  • Common in professions requiring prolonged kneeling


8. Chondromalacia Patella

  • Softening or damage to the cartilage beneath the kneecap

  • Common in young adults and females

  • Pain with climbing stairs or prolonged sitting


9. Referred Pain from Hip or Foot Dysfunction

  • Misalignment or weakness in the feet or hips can overload the knees

  • Conditions like flat feet, leg length discrepancy, or tight hip flexors can contribute to chronic knee pain

Foot Problems That Can Lead to Knee Pain

Your feet act as the foundation of your body. Abnormalities here often travel upward to stress the knees. At Physio360 Chennai, we also check for:

  • Flat feet (overpronation)

  • High arches

  • Uneven gait mechanics

  • Poor footwear

  • Leg length discrepancy

These are often silent contributors to knee pain. Correcting them with orthotic advice, strengthening, and manual therapy is a part of our holistic care.
