What is causing your knee pain?

Knee Arthritis

The most common type of arthritis of the knee is osteoarthritis, often referred to as a “wear and tear” arthritis . The main risk factor is simply age, and almost everyone will eventually develop some degree of osteoarthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis, an immune based disorder can also cause knee and other joint pain.  

Other factors increase the risk of developing significant arthritis.

  • Weight. Weight increases pressure on the knees. Every pound of weight you gain adds 3 to 4 pounds of extra weight on your knees.
  • Heredity. Genetics might make a person more likely to develop arthritis of the knee.
  • Gender. Women over ages 55 are more likely than men to develop arthritis of the knee.
  • Occupational or other Repetitive stress injuries. Activity that stresses the joint, such as kneeling, squatting, or lifting heavy weights (55 pounds or more), increase the risk of developing osteoarthritis of the knee because of the constant pressure on the joint.
  • Athletics. Athletics which stresses the knee places athletes at higher risk for developing osteoarthritis of the knee.

Osteoarthritis of the knee is diagnosed by X-rays, which can show bone and cartilage damage as well as the presence of bone spurs. (MRI) scans show more detail, including meniscal injuries, tendons and ligaments. Doctors may use blood tests to rule out other conditions that could be causing the pain, such as rheumatoid arthritis.
