The meniscus is a cartilage cushion between the thigh and shin bones. A tear can occur due to sudden twisting motions or gradual wear and tear. Symptoms include pain, swelling, and difficulty fully straightening the knee.
Cartilage damage can result from trauma, overuse, or degenerative conditions like osteoarthritis. It often leads to knee pain, stiffness, and locking sensations, affecting movement and overall joint health.
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) helps stabilize the knee. A rupture or sprain typically happens during sports that involve sudden stops, pivots, or jumps. Patients may experience swelling, instability, and difficulty bearing weight on the affected leg.
If you experience any of the following symptoms, it’s essential to consult a knee specialist to prevent further damage and improve recovery:
Seeking early treatment can prevent long-term complications and help you return to an active lifestyle faster. If you’re experiencing knee discomfort, consult a specialist today.
If your knee feels warm or appears red, it could be a sign of inflammation or an underlying issue such as infection or joint irritation. This may occur after an injury or in response to joint overuse.
Some patients may hear or feel grinding, clicking, or popping in the knee during movement. While not always serious, persistent sounds may indicate cartilage wear, loose fragments, or other internal changes in the joint.
Difficulty fully extending the leg may suggest joint swelling, stiffness, or internal blockages such as a torn meniscus. This may gradually worsen if left untreated.
Locking refers to the knee getting stuck or catching during motion. This can disrupt movement and may point to cartilage damage or loose tissue within the joint.
