Understanding knee pain
Understanding knee pain in Newmarket, Mildenhall and Bury Saint Edmunds
Knee pain is a common ailment that affects people of all ages, often making everyday activities like walking, climbing stairs, and even sitting a challenge.
This pain and discomfort can stem from various issues, including injuries like ligament tears, arthritis, or overuse.
Knee pain is very common in middle-aged adults. It can be a frustrating condition that limits mobility and affects overall quality of life.
While medical treatments like painkillers and physical therapy are common, sometimes severe cases are treated with steroid injections or even total knee replacements. Sadly, many traditional medical approaches only provide temporary pain relief.
Home remedies for knee pain
Treating knee pain at home
Rest and elevation
Rest and elevation can help with the immediate pain but when it comes to improving knee health, movement is important. Prolonged lack of movement can make people suffering with knee pain feel anxious about movement due to a fear of pain.
​
Gentle stretching and exercise
For people struggling with knee pain, the idea of movement or exercise can seem counterintuitive but keeping movement is important due to the structure of the knee joint. However, it is important not to push the amount of exercise into pain.
​
Applying ice
Applying ice is a common home treatment for knee pain but while ice can act as an analgesic, many people struggling with knee pain will find applying heat more comforting and soothing.
