Having knee issues? We can help

The knee joint is the largest joint in the body and is located between the thigh bone (femur) and the shin bone (tibia). It also connects to the smaller bone of the leg (patella) that sits in front of the knee and is known as the knee cap. The knee joint is a hinge joint, which allows for movement in two main directions: flexion (bending) and extension (straightening).

The knee joint is supported by a number of ligaments, which provide stability and help to keep the joint in place. The two main ligaments are the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), which are located inside the knee joint and prevent excessive movement of the femur and tibia.

The knee is also surrounded by muscles, tendons, and other soft tissues, which work together to allow for movement and support. The quadriceps and hamstrings are the most important muscles that support the knee joint, and the knee joint also has a fluid filled sac called bursa that helps reduce friction between the bones and tendons.

Knee joint problems and injuries can occur due to a variety of causes, including trauma, overuse, degenerative conditions such as osteoarthritis, and other underlying medical conditions. Common knee joint problems include knee osteoarthritis, ligament tears (ACL and PCL), and meniscus tears. Treatment for knee joint problems may include physical therapy, medication, and in severe cases, surgery.
