What Is Chronic Knee Pain?
Chronic knee pain is defined as knee discomfort that persists for three months or longer. It can be caused by various conditions, such as:
- Overuse: Repeated stress on the knee joint from activities like running or squatting can lead to inflammation and chronic pain as the joint is unable to recover fully.
- Cartilage degeneration: The gradual breakdown of cartilage in the knee joint reduces cushioning, eventually leading to a bone-on-bone condition that causes persistent pain and limited mobility.
- Osteoarthritis: This degenerative joint disease progressively wears down knee cartilage. In its advanced bone-on-bone stage, it can result in chronic pain due to direct contact between the bones.
- Ligament injuries: Tears or sprains in knee ligaments can destabilize the joint, leading to long-term pain and swelling. This may aggravate existing cartilage damage and contribute to chronic knee pain.
Common Symptoms of Chronic Knee Pain
Chronic knee pain can manifest in several ways, and its severity varies depending on the underlying cause. Some common symptoms include:
- Persistent aching or sharp pain in the knee joint
- Swelling or inflammation around the knee
- Stiffness, especially after prolonged periods of rest or activity
- Reduced range of motion, which makes it difficult to fully extend or bend the knee
- Pain that worsens with physical activity or climbing stairs
