KNEE PAIN Knee pain is one of the leading musculoskeletal issues in today’s world. The knee essentially carries the weight of the entire body around along with bending and straightening the body. Knee pain results from an issue with any of the four bones that make up the knee joint (tibia, femur, and fibula), the cartilage and ligaments (meniscus), or the kneecap (patella). Physical activity such as sports and obesity are risk factors for knee pain.
