Musculoskeletal Care

Knee Pain Treatment

Pain, swelling, and stiffness in the knee joint affecting mobility and daily activities.

Understanding Knee Pain

The knee is the body's largest joint, and when the cartilage that cushions it is worn or damaged the bones can rub together and cause pain. Knee osteoarthritis is very common, affecting up to about 40% of people as they age.

At Crest Natural Health Centre, we relieve knee pain naturally — with NDA-registered homeopathic medicine and supportive guidance — and aim to keep you mobile without surgery.

Common Symptoms

Pain, stiffness, and tenderness

Swelling, sometimes described as 'water on the knee'

A grating or grinding sensation when bending the knee

Reduced range of movement

The knee occasionally giving way or buckling

Pain when climbing stairs, squatting, or jumping

Causes & Triggers

Osteoarthritis is a leading cause, as the cushioning cartilage gradually wears down until bone rubs on bone.

Rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune condition, can inflame the joint — and is more common in women.

Repetitive strain can inflame the tendons (tendonitis) or the small fluid sacs around the joint (bursitis).

Sports injuries, falls, and carrying excess weight all add to the load on the knee.

Risks of Delaying Care

As cartilage wears away, bone can rub on bone, causing more pain and stiffness.

Continued friction can gradually deform the joint.

Inflammation can lead to fluid building up around the knee and to bony spurs.
