Understanding Knee Pain

The knee is the largest and most complex joint in the body, bearing your full body weight with every step. Knee pain can originate from any of the knee structures — bones, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, or bursae. The severity ranges from mild discomfort that resolves with rest to debilitating pain that limits all daily activities. Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective treatment.

Common Causes of Knee Pain

  • Osteoarthritis — gradual wear and breakdown of cartilage, most common in adults over 50
  • Rheumatoid arthritis — autoimmune inflammation attacking the joint lining
  • Ligament injuries — ACL, PCL, MCL or LCL tears from sports or accidents
  • Meniscus tears — damage to the shock-absorbing cartilage pads
  • Patellar tendinitis — inflammation of the tendon connecting kneecap to shinbone
  • Bursitis — swelling of fluid-filled sacs cushioning the joint
  • Gout and pseudogout — crystal deposits causing sudden severe inflammation
  • Bone-on-bone contact due to severe cartilage loss
  • Post-traumatic arthritis following knee fractures or dislocations
  • Obesity — excess weight dramatically increases joint stress

Symptoms That Indicate You Need Evaluation

  • Persistent dull ache or sharp pain in or around the knee
  • Stiffness, especially in the morning or after sitting
  • Swelling and warmth around the joint
  • Reduced range of motion — difficulty bending or straightening
  • Clicking, popping, or grinding sounds (crepitus)
  • Knee giving way or feeling unstable
  • Pain that worsens with stairs, squatting, or prolonged walking
  • Visible deformity or bow-legged / knock-kneed appearance

How We Diagnose Knee Pain

Dr. Dubay conducts a thorough clinical examination combined with appropriate investigations to identify the exact cause of your knee pain.

X-rays to assess bone alignment, joint space narrowing, and bone spurs
MRI scan for soft tissue evaluation — cartilage, ligaments, and menisci
Blood tests to rule out inflammatory arthritis or infection
Joint fluid analysis (arthrocentesis) when infection or gout is suspected
Bone density scan (DEXA) to evaluate for osteoporosis
Standing full-length leg X-rays to assess overall limb alignment
