A recent article published by Hindustan Times features insights from Dr Rajesh Verma, Head of Spine Surgery at Shalby International Hospital, Gurgaon, on why knee pain in people in their 30s should not always be dismissed as a normal part of ageing. The article highlights that past injuries, sports-related ligament damage, repetitive stress, excess weight and inflammatory conditions can contribute to knee problems at a younger age. It emphasises that persistent pain, swelling, stiffness or instability requires timely evaluation to identify the underlying cause and help protect long-term joint health.
