Age-Related Knee Pain: Causes, Symptoms & Care
As we grow older, our knee joints naturally experience wear and tear due to years of movement and stress. This gradual degeneration can lead to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility, making daily activities uncomfortable if not addressed early.
Common age-related changes affecting the knees include:
- Cartilage wear, which reduces cushioning between the bones
- Reduced flexibility, leading to stiffness and difficulty in movement
- Increased joint stress, often due to body weight and weakened muscles
Treatment options such as lifestyle modification, weight management, physiotherapy, medications, and expert orthopedic evaluation can help maintain joint health and improve quality of life.
If you are experiencing persistent knee pain, consulting an orthopedic specialist at the right time can help you move better, stay active, and live stronger.
