Say Goodbye To KNEE Pain With PhysiOTherapy

Have you noticed that walking or going up and down stairs seems more difficult, thanks to your knees? Knee pain is a common complaint, especially as we get older. Fortunately, the results-oriented physiotherapists at Mawaddah Physiotherapy offer proven solutions to address your knee pain!

You may feel tempted to limit your movement if you’re struggling with knee pain. However, this is likely the opposite of what you should do–regular exercise is crucial in managing or relieving persistent knee pain.

Once we know the cause of your pain, we’ll develop an evidence-based physiotherapy treatment plan that will get you moving and feeling your best–without the use of dangerous drugs or invasive surgery.

Knee pain doesn’t have to be an inevitable part of growing older. Our expert physiotherapists will help you control your pain and improve your mobility–so you can get back to a healthy, active lifestyle!

Why Does My Knee Hurt?

Understanding The Causes Of Knee Pain

Firstly, it’s important to understand that knee pain isn’t always a knee problem. The knee joint relies on the joints above and below it (the hip and the ankle/foot, respectively) to work correctly. Your knee pain might very well be an issue with your hip or ankles, not the knee itself.

That said, there are situations where knee pain is due to an injury or other impairment in the knee. Your knee joint is a complex blend of muscles, nerves, and bones. Every time you bend and straighten that joint, all those tissues must work together to get moving. If something goes wrong in even one area, it could lead to pain.

Fortunately, at Mawaddah Physiotherapy in Kuala Selangor, Selangor, our physiotherapists are experts at getting to the root of your knee pain. Here are some of the conditions and injuries of the knee that could be causing your pain:

Arthritis: The most common type of arthritis for knee pain is osteoarthritis (OA). This condition occurs when the cartilage surrounding your joints deteriorates, and the joint no longer has a sufficient cushion between the bone. This leads to joint inflammation, with varying pain levels, stiffness, and reduced mobility.

Cartilage Injuries: Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue that protects your bones and joints. If you twist your knee quickly while bearing weight or sustain other trauma, the cartilage may be injured. It is also possible for prolonged inactivity or repetitive movements to cause fraying and eventually tearing of the cartilage.

Ligament Injuries: The ligaments in your knee act like leather straps to hold the bones together and keep your knee stable. Sudden stops and twists or direct blows to the knee often cause ligament injuries.

Tendinitis: Your tendons are thick connective tissues that attach muscles to bones. Tendinitis occurs when the tendon becomes inflamed due to repetitive movements. It is common in jumping and landing motions and sports like skiing, cycling, or hurdling.

Knee bursitis: Bursae are closed, fluid-filled sacs that cushion and help create a smooth, gliding surface to reduce friction between body tissues such as tendons and bone. An injury, overuse, or repeated pressure on the knee can cause inflammation in the bursae, leading to pain.

Patellar Dislocation: A condition in which the kneecap slides out of place, often caused by a sudden change in direction or twisting of the knee.

Knee Fracture: A knee fracture refers to a break or crack in one or more of the bones that make up the knee joint. These bones include the femur (thigh bone), tibia (shin bone), and patella (kneecap). Knee fractures can occur due to trauma, accidents, or sports injuries.

Treating Knee Pain The Mawaddah Physiotherapy Way

Our team of experts always offers customized, evidence-based treatment plans developed around your specific needs and abilities.

When you come in for your initial consultation, we’ll start with a comprehensive knee evaluation, including a thorough medical history and hands-on physical assessment. Through various mobility tests, we’ll be able to determine if the problem is your knee or something else and the extent of the injury. From there, we’ll develop your personalized treatment plan to address your specific needs all without medications, injections or surgery. We’ll use a blend of different treatment approaches, including the following:

Manual Therapy

This hands-on treatment technique can reduce pain and restore your mobility. Our physical therapists will gently guide your knee joint through its range of motion, helping to address impairments.

Therapeutic Exercises

Our targeted knee exercises will get the joints moving and address issues with strength and flexibility. We’ll show you stretches to improve your range of motion and resistance exercises to strengthen the muscles around the knee joint.

Functional Training

If you struggle with everyday movements, such as walking, our therapists will provide specialized exercises to help you “train” for daily tasks.

Assistive Devices

Sometimes, you may need a brace or walking aid to help you move around safely as you address your condition. Our therapists will set you up with a suitable device and instruct you in its use.

Education

Finally, our therapists will help you fully understand your condition and what you can do to see results

Modalities

Depending on your needs, we may also use various modalities such as deep tissue laser, muscle stimulation, biofeedback, contrast whirlpool and ultrasound to alleviate pain, minimize inflammation, and facilitate the healing process.

The results-oriented approach to physiotherapy at Mawaddah Physiotherapy means we’ll work with you to find the right blend of treatment approaches to optimize your rehabilitation goals. Our therapists in Mawaddah will carefully record your progress and suggest treatment adjustments as needed.
