What Causes Knee Pain?
Knee pain can develop suddenly after an injury or gradually over time. A physiotherapy assessment helps identify the most likely contributing factors and the right rehabilitation direction.
Training or Load Increase
Running, gym training, sport or sudden increases in activity can overload the knee and cause pain.
Weakness or Poor Control
Weakness around the hip, thigh or calf can affect how the knee moves during daily activity and exercise.
Joint Stiffness or Arthritis
Stiffness, reduced mobility and joint changes can contribute to pain and difficulty with stairs or walking.
Injury or Surgery
Meniscus injuries, ligament sprains and post-operative recovery often require structured rehabilitation.
Meniscus Pain, Ligament Injuries and Knee Arthritis
Knee pain is often described as meniscus pain, ligament injury, arthritis, kneecap pain or general stiffness. The important step is to assess how your knee moves, what activities trigger pain and what physical factors need to improve.
Physiotherapy can help you understand what may be irritating your knee and how to rebuild strength, mobility and confidence gradually.
If your knee pain is related to a surgery or a long rehabilitation process, our Post-Operative Rehabilitation in Nicosia page may also be relevant when available.
Common signs you may need help
- Pain when walking or using stairs
- Knee swelling or stiffness
- Clicking, locking or catching sensations
- Pain during squats or running
- Weakness or instability
