Knee pain can be caused :
• By injuries, mechanical problems, types of arthritis and other problems.
• A knee injury can affect any of the ligaments, tendons or fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that surround your knee joint as well as the bones, cartilage and ligaments that form the joint itself.
Some of the more common knee injuries include :
ACL injury :
• An ACL injury is a tear of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) one of four ligaments that connect your shinbone to your thighbone.
• An ACL injury is particularly common in people who play basketball, soccer or other sports that require sudden changes in direction.
Fractures :
• The bones of the knee, including the kneecap (patella), can be broken during falls or auto accidents.
• Also, people whose bones have been weakened by osteoporosis can sometimes sustain a knee fracture simply by stepping wrong.
Torn meniscus :
• The meniscus is the tough, rubbery cartilage that acts as a shock absorber between your shinbone and thighbone.
• It can be torn if you suddenly twist your knee while bearing weight on it.
Knee bursitis :
• Some knee injuries cause inflammation in the bursae, the small sacs of fluid that cushion the outside of your knee joint so that tendons and ligaments glide smoothly over the joint.
Patellar tendinitis :
• Tendinitis causes irritation and inflammation of one or more tendons the thick, fibrous tissues that attach muscles to bones.
• This inflammation can happen when there's an injury to the patellar tendon, which runs from the kneecap (patella) to the shinbone and allows you to kick, run and jump.
• Runners, skiers, cyclists, and those involved in jumping sports and activities may develop patellar tendinitis.
mechanical problems that can cause knee pain include :
Loose body :
• Sometimes injury or degeneration of bone or cartilage can cause a piece of bone or cartilage to break off and float in the joint space.
• This may not create any problems unless the loose body interferes with knee joint movement, in which case the effect is something like a pencil caught in a door hinge.
Iliotibial band syndrome :
• This occurs when the tough band of tissue that extends from the outside of your hip to the outside of your knee (iliotibial band) becomes so tight that it rubs against the outer portion of your thighbone.
• Distance runners and cyclists are especially susceptible to iliotibial band syndrome.
Dislocated kneecap :
• This occurs when the triangular bone that covers the front of your knee (patella) slips out of place, usually to the outside of your knee.
• In some cases, the kneecap may stay displaced and you'll be able to see the
