Knee pain can make walking, exercising, climbing stairs, and even everyday movement difficult. Whether your symptoms developed from a sports injury, repetitive stress, arthritis, or chronic wear and tear, knee pain can significantly affect your mobility and quality of life.
At The Arne Clinic, we take a whole-body approach to knee pain by identifying the underlying cause of joint stress, inflammation, and movement dysfunction while creating personalized treatment plans focused on long-term recovery and function.
Contact UsThe knee is one of the most heavily used joints in the body and is vulnerable to injury, instability, and chronic stress.
Common causes of knee pain include:
Because the hips, spine, feet, and surrounding muscles all influence knee function, knee pain is often connected to broader movement and alignment issues throughout the body.
Arthritis
Arthritis is one of the most common causes of chronic knee pain and stiffness. Joint degeneration and inflammation may lead to reduced mobility, swelling, and discomfort during movement.
Ligament Injuries
Ligament injuries involving the ACL, PCL, or MCL commonly occur during sports, twisting injuries, or sudden impacts and may create instability, swelling, and pain.
Meniscus Tears
The meniscus acts as cushioning within the knee joint. Tears may occur suddenly from injury or gradually through wear and tear over time.
Tendonitis
Patellar tendonitis and other overuse conditions often develop from repetitive stress, exercise, or prolonged strain on the knee joint.
Kneecap & Cartilage Issues
Conditions involving kneecap movement and cartilage irritation may cause pain, grinding sensations, stiffness, or discomfort during walking and exercise.

Knee pain is not always isolated to the knee itself. Issues involving posture, spinal alignment, hip mobility, muscle balance, and gait patterns can all contribute to ongoing knee stress and irritation.
