Overuse Knee Injuries: Causes and Prevention


One of the main causes of knee pain is overuse. It's easy to do. For instance, I typically run every day for exercise even if a feel a little pain, are tired or have worn out shoes. I won't miss a day unless I experience an injury. Well, one day it happened while playing soccer. My knee suddenly gave out and couldn't run the next day. The doc said I had knee tendinitis caused by overuse.

These knee injuries are characterized by pain felt around the front or sides of the knee joint (my pain was on the inside of the knee). The pain is most intense when squatting or bending your leg towards your buttocks. Exercising makes it temporarily subside only to return again when you've cooled down.

  1. Good information. As I know Unloader knee bracing may be is another good solution for knee pain. Recent trends declare that the usage of Unloader knee bracing in conjunction with Injectable treatments such as Hyaluronic Acidity (HLA) or even Platelet abundant plasma (PrP) offer you the next step frontward with alleviating the actual suffering connected with OA.

  2. Sometimes the injury can be of severe nature like ligament tear or fracture of bones. ACL tear surgery in Mumbai helps to restore structural damage done to the ligament due to knee injury. Dr. Amyn Rajani is one of the best orthopaedic doctor in Mumbai. He practices as a Consultant Knee and Shoulder Surgeon at Breach Candy Hospital, Lilavati Hospital, Bhatia Hospital, Saifee Hospital, and at his private clinic i.e. the Oaks Clinic in Mumbai with his expertise in healthcare and dedication towards his patients.
