What Causes Knee Pain?
Find Lasting Relief from Knee Pain Without Surgery or Medications
Knee pain is a common condition that affects people of all ages, from athletes to older adults experiencing joint degeneration. Whether your pain stems from an injury, arthritis, or chronic wear and tear, it can significantly impact your ability to walk, run, and perform daily activities. At Sandstone Chiropractic, we provide non-invasive, drug-free treatments designed to relieve knee pain at the source, restore mobility, and improve joint function—without the need for painkillers or surgery.
Knee pain can result from a range of underlying conditions
Osteoarthritis & Joint Degeneration
Osteoarthritis is one of the most common causes of knee pain, affecting millions of people as they age. This condition occurs when the cartilage that cushions the knee joint wears down over time, leading to bone-on-bone friction, inflammation, and stiffness. Symptoms typically include chronic pain, swelling, reduced range of motion, and difficulty with everyday movements like walking or climbing stairs. Without proper care, osteoarthritis can worsen over time, impacting mobility and overall joint health.
Tendonitis & Overuse Injuries
Repetitive motions and high-impact activities such as running, jumping, or cycling can cause inflammation of the knee’s tendons, leading to patellar tendonitis (jumper’s knee). This condition results in pain at the front of the knee, swelling, and tenderness, making it difficult to perform activities that involve bending or squatting. Overuse injuries are common in athletes, active individuals, and those with poor movement mechanics. Addressing tendonitis early with chiropractic care, rehabilitation exercises, and soft tissue therapy can prevent further strain and long-term knee dysfunction.
Meniscus Tears
The meniscus is a rubbery, C-shaped cartilage in the knee that absorbs shock and stabilizes the joint. A meniscus tearcan occur due to sudden twisting movements, deep squats, or age-related wear and tear. Symptoms include sharp pain, swelling, stiffness, and a sensation of the knee “locking” or giving out. Without proper treatment, meniscus injuries can worsen over time, leading to long-term joint instability and an increased risk of osteoarthritis. Chiropractic care and non-invasive therapies can help reduce pain and restore knee function.
Knee Bursitis
Bursae are fluid-filled sacs that cushion the knee joint and reduce friction between bones, tendons, and muscles. Repeated kneeling, direct impact, or infections can cause inflammation in these sacs, leading to knee bursitis. Symptoms include localized swelling, warmth, tenderness, and pain when bending or extending the knee. Chronic bursitis can significantly impact daily activities and athletic performance. Treating knee bursitis with non-invasive therapies, inflammation reduction techniques, and proper joint support can promote long-term relief and prevent recurrence.
Ligament Injuries (ACL, MCL, PCL Tears)
The knee contains several major ligaments (ACL, MCL, PCL, and LCL) that provide stability and support. Injuries to these ligaments, often caused by sports activities, sudden twisting motions, or direct impact, can result in severe pain, swelling, instability, and limited movement. ACL and MCL tears are among the most common ligament injuries, requiring targeted rehabilitation to restore strength and function. Without proper treatment, ligament injuries can lead to long-term instability and increase the risk of further knee damage.
