An article published in Amar Ujala highlights the importance of seeking timely medical attention for persistent knee pain. Dr. Rajesh Verma, Head – Spine Surgery, Shalby International Hospital, Gurugram, explains that knee pain should not always be attributed to ageing or normal wear and tear. Previous sports injuries, ligament or cartilage problems, excess weight and certain inflammatory conditions can also contribute to knee pain. The article advises consultation with a specialist if pain persists or is accompanied by swelling, stiffness or difficulty in movement, particularly when symptoms continue after an injury.
