There are two main causes of knee pain:
- Knee pain can be the result of a sudden stress that can cause injuries ranging from strains and sprains to a dislocated kneecap.
- And knee pain can be due to a prolonged stress over time that can cause wear and tear, as occurs in arthritis.
While pain can be treated with medication, it’s always better to treat it at its source. Instead of just relieving pain, this stops the pain from occurring in the first place.
Some knee pain treatments can effectively reduce or eliminate pain from nearly all knee injuries. Rest alone can often cure pain from simple strains and sprains. Physical therapy strengthens the muscles around the knee and helps reduce pain in most types of knee injuries. But effective treatment of knee pain usually depends on knowing exactly what’s causing the pain.
These are just a few examples of specific treatments. The large number of working parts in and around the knee means that there are a tremendous variety of knee injuries. And each one responds best to a different treatment.
The key to successful treatment of knee pain is a thorough examination to find its cause. The NYC Chiropractic and Spinal Decompression Center, we have multiple specialists under one roof. This means we’re familiar with sports-related injuries as well as injuries that occur from the stress of day-to-day living. And once the cause is diagnosed, there’s a professional at our Soho / West Village New York office who knows how to treat it and the facilities to do so.
