Knee pain is a relatively common complaint that may be caused by a number of conditions and circumstances. In many cases, knee pain is the result of strain, overuse, or poor leg biomechanics. However, knee pain can also be caused by underlying conditions affecting certain parts of the foot or leg. When this occurs, the underlying condition must be treated to restore proper alignment and functioning. Medical professionals such as physical therapists and orthopedic doctors will work to identify potential causes of knee pain to design and implement an appropriate knee pain treatment.

• Meniscus Tear

• Patellofemoral Knee Pain

• Hamstring Tears
