Knee pain isn’t just irritating; it can be completely intrusive, making even walking comfortably seem impossible. Fortunately, chiropractic care can provide the natural and lasting relief you seek. Below, our team at Bolz Chiropractic in Topeka shares some of the most common injuries that cause knee pain and how chiropractic care can help.
Knee dislocations often occur due to some form of accident, such as a sports or auto accident. This can create inflammation and intense knee pain.
Ligaments around the knee joint often get injured due to overuse or overextension. For example, if you trip or fall and your knee twists beyond its normal range, this is known as a sprain.
Twisting the knee can lead to a tear in the meniscus, which is the cartilage that runs from the thigh to the shin.
Bursa – the small sac of fluid that cushions your knee joint – can become inflamed. It’s often due to overuse and can cause a great deal of knee pain and limited mobility.
Tendonitis is the term used for inflammation of the tendons. Like many other causes of knee pain, tendonitis is often caused by overuse.
Arthritis isn’t an injury itself but is often the result of an injury, like a dislocation or fracture. It’s sometimes referred to as post-traumatic arthritis. Osteoarthritis is a form of arthritis that is caused by wear and tear. It’s usually due to aging, but can also be caused by overuse and other injuries.
Chiropractors specialize in treating the musculoskeletal system, which includes the bones, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and cartilage. Through adjustments, soft tissue techniques, and therapeutic exercises, common knee injuries and related symptoms can be eliminated.
