As the knee joint takes up the whole body weight of a person while standing, walking, and doing other activities therefore it is considered to be one of the most common joints to be affected. Knee pains can occur due to various reasons and Physiotherapy plays a major role in treating every kind of knee pain.

Knee pain is a common complaint that affects people of all ages. Knee pain may be the result of an injury, such as a ruptured ligament or torn cartilage. Medical conditions — including arthritis, gout and infections — also can cause knee pain.

Many types of minor knee pain respond well to self-care measures. Physical therapy and knee braces also can help relieve pain. In some cases, however, your knee may require surgical repair.
