Best treatment for knee arthritis
Do you feel pain, stiffness, or swelling in your knee while walking, climbing stairs, or sitting for long? It could be due to a condition called knee arthritis.
Knee arthritis is when the cartilage (the smooth covering at the ends of bones) in your knee wears down. This leads to pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joint. The most common type is osteoarthritis, which usually happens due to age, injury, or overuse. It makes daily movements difficult and can affect your quality of life.
If untreated, knee arthritis can get worse over time. You may have more pain, less movement, and might even need surgery. But with early care, it’s possible to slow down the damage, reduce pain, and stay active.
Common Symptoms:
• Pain in the knee (especially during or after activity)
• Stiffness (especially in the morning or after sitting)
• Swelling around the knee joint
• Cracking or grinding sound
• Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or squatting
