It can result from acute ligament injuries, chronic osteoarthritis, meniscal tears, or alignment issues. Targeted physiotherapy exercises are highly effective in managing knee pain and restoring joint function.

Frequently Asked Questions
QCan physiotherapy help knee osteoarthritis without surgery?
Yes. Physiotherapy is a primary conservative treatment for knee osteoarthritis. Strengthening the surrounding muscles reduces joint pressure, decreases pain, and improves walking ability.
QWhat exercises should I avoid if I have knee pain?
Avoid deep squats, lunges, and high-impact jumping exercises until a physiotherapist has assessed your knee and cleared you for progressive loading.
QHow does quad strength protect the knee joint?
The quadriceps absorb impact forces during activities like walking and stair climbing, preventing excess loading and wear on the knee cartilage.
