Knee Pain

Most common | Ligament / tendon | Joint injuries | Overuse injuries | Acute injuries

Knee injuries are among the most common joint injuries in both sporting and occupational or day-to-day situations. The knee joint itself is very complex, with many structures which may be injured. Generally, knee injuries can be divided into acute - those that develop suddenly, usually due to a sudden force or impact - or overuse - which develop gradually, getting slowly worse over a period of time, with no specific point of injury.
