Knee Pain

Knee pain is a common complaint that can affect people of all ages, often limiting mobility and daily activities. Dr. Peeyush Yadav explains that knee pain can result from various causes, including osteoarthritis, ligament injuries, meniscus tears, tendonitis, or inflammation due to overuse. Through a detailed consultation, Dr. Yadav assesses the underlying cause by evaluating symptoms, medical history, and performing diagnostic tests such as X-rays or MRI. Treatment is personalized based on the severity and source of pain. For mild to moderate cases, Dr. Yadav recommends non-surgical approaches like physiotherapy, anti-inflammatory medications, weight management, and supportive braces to relieve pressure on the joint. Strengthening exercises, guided under professional supervision, help improve muscle support and joint stability. For patients with advanced joint degeneration or structural damage, surgical options like arthroscopy or knee replacement may be considered to restore function and alleviate pain. Dr. Yadav emphasizes a holistic approach, combining medical treatment with patient education on joint care, posture correction, and lifestyle adjustments to prevent further damage. His goal is to not only relieve pain but also enhance knee function, allowing patients to return to an active, pain-free life. Early diagnosis and proper care are key to managing knee pain effectively.
