Knee Pain Q & A

What is knee pain?

Knee pain affects your knee joint, the junction between your upper and lower leg. The knee joint consists of bones, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and cartilage. Pain in your knee can develop for various reasons, but treating the source of the pain is possible with the right plan. Superior Health and Wellness specializes in holistic (natural) knee pain treatments.

What does it feel like to have knee pain?

Your knee discomfort might present as:

  • Aching
  • Sharp pain
  • Swelling
  • Redness
  • Burning
  • Popping sounds
  • Decreased range of motion
  • Limited mobility 
  • Bruising
  • Warmth

If the discomfort doesn’t subside and is ongoing, see the Superior Health and Wellness team for an evaluation. 

What may cause knee pain?

Common causes and risk factors for knee pain include:

  • Osteoarthritis
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Osteoporosis
  • Sports injuries
  • Age-related wear-and-tear
  • Auto and personal injuries
  • Falls
  • Dislocation
  • Inflammation
  • Muscle, bone, tendon, or ligament injuries
  • Tendoinitis 

How does my provider diagnose the source of knee pain?

Diagnosing conditions that contribute to knee pain involves a medical history and symptoms review, a physical exam, and often blood tests, X-rays, an MRI, an ultrasound, or other imaging procedures. The Superior Health and Wellness team customizes a treatment that’s best suited to your needs.

How is knee pain treated?

Your Superior Health and Wellness specialist pinpoints the cause of knee pain to establish the most effective treatment plan. They offer:

  • Chiropractic services
  • Physical rehabilitation 
  • Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) 
  • Joint injections
  • Viscosupplementation injections
  • Custom Knee Orthotics

During PRP treatments, your provider injects growth factors from your blood into damaged or painful tissues to stimulate new cell growth. 

Viscosupplementation, or knee fluid replacement therapy, uses a bio-lubricant injection (a gel-like substance called hyaluronic acid) to reduce inflammation and eases knee pain without surgery, harsh medications, or invasive procedures. It allows your joint to move more smoothly.

The Superior Health and Wellness team may suggest multiple types of knee pain treatment to achieve exceptional results.
