Knees can be difficult to manage and having knee pain and stiffness can impinge on all areas of your life – making staying active harder. If you are considering knee physio you will know that sometimes it is difficult to know what has caused your pain.

Some of the causes of knee pain are:

ITB (iliotibial band) syndrome – the ITB is a band of tissue that extends from the outside of the hip, that when compressed can become symptomatic at the end and on the outside of the femur.
Osteoarthritis – can often be age-related or associated with injury (needing repair), this is related to a combination of persistent inflammation wear-and-tear which leads to deterioration of the cartilage around joints.
Rheumatoid arthritis – this is a chronic autoimmune condition that can affect people at any age and affects the cartilage around joints.
Patellar tendinopathy – Symptoms coming from a very isolated area of the tendon at the front of the knee below the knee cap.
Patellofemoral joint (PFJ) pain – this is also known as kneecap pain and is a term to describe broad pain around the knee cap (that can sometimes move). PFJ pain can be common in people who run, or complete jumping activities. It is also important to note that this condition can derive from a number of influencing factors such as the ankle and hip joint.
