Overuse knee injury occurs with repetitive injuries to muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints of the knee. Patellofemoral pain, overused knee injury, chondromalacia patella, and runner’s knee are interchangeable terms to describe an overuse injury. According to published studies, over forty percent of overuse injuries involve the knee. Though common in athletes (“runner’s knee pain), it can happen to anyone.

It is difficult to pinpoint an exact cause of an overuse knee injury or “runner’s” knee. However, there are some indications as to possible causes:

  • Larger than normal knee cap
  • Knocked-knees
  • Bowed-legs
  • Premature wear and tear of the knee joints (patellofemoral and tibiofemoral)
  • Shortened and weakened muscles of the thigh or knee
  • Flat feet

To recover from an overuse knee injury, you will need to have your knees thoroughly assessed by one of our experts. CSC’s combined care from chiropractors and physiotherapists is your best non-surgical route for a speedy recovery.  Our clinical successes result from our in-depth knowledge, skills, and advanced therapy devices to target and correct the underlying causes of pain or injury.

What Is The Best Non-Surgical Treatment For The Knees?

The knee is a major weight-bearing joint. A knee injury is common. We have all injured a body part. Most of the time, injuries are self-limiting, and we recover within one to two days. Lingering knee pain can have far-reaching implications. Therefore, if you have a knee issue, do not ignore knee pain. We can help

Overuse knee injury (patellofemoral pain or “runner’s” knee) is all too common. It can happen at any time, and no one is immune. Even professional athletes with near-perfect muscle and ligament tone are susceptible. In an overuse knee injury, the pain can be felt immediately after an irritating event, or it could take hours to days before it is apparent to the sufferer. How soon it affects is, at times, indicative of the degree of damage.

Often, overuse can lead to knee degeneration and knee arthritis. Also, small tears are only detectable through a microscope. This little damage can cause an inflammatory response, and that inflammatory response is often the cause of knee pain. Regardless of the severity, each overuse injury or condition needs evaluation the identify the source of pain. Otherwise, it could become a chronic condition in which a person re-injures the knees over and over.

Our center we have experienced chiropractors in Malaysia to determine the offending structures. We also have clinical physiotherapists to help you recover at a rate better than others.

How To Avoid Overuse Injuries Of The Knee?

To prevent overuse injury or patellofemoral pain, you must make sure not to push your body beyond its’ limits. If you are a professional athlete, make sure that you have conditioned your knee to a point where your knee can take the extra push when you need them.

Pushing your body to the limit is okay, but pushing it beyond its’ limits or restrictions will undoubtedly lead to a knee injury and knee pain. Gym goers, the elderly, and the already injured often suffer from precursors of an overuse knee injury.

Runner’s knee or an overuse knee condition is a self-inflicted injury often seen in the mighty weekend warrior. So, to all the weekend warriors out there: enjoy your workouts, but keep in mind that your body has limits. “Pushing your body to the limit” is okay, but pushing it “beyond its’ limits” will undoubtedly lead to a knee injury and knee pain. Furthermore, the weekend warrior, the elderly, and the already injured often suffer from precursors of an overuse knee injury.

Knee pain is the most common joint pain in teenagers and adults. According to researchers, it affects 25% of the population. As mentioned earlier, causes of knee pain include knocked-knees, bowed legs, arthritis, and flat feet. To avoid an overuse knee injury, you will need to know your limits. Also, you will require focused strengthening exercises and stretches for your quadriceps and hamstring muscles.

How To Avoid Knee Pain & Injury In The Elderly?

The elderly are at a higher risk of having an overuse knee injury. Weak muscles resulting from insufficient activity or bedridden are the main culprits of knee pain in the elderly. Other causes include prolonged standing or excessive walking with weak, arthritic, and degenerated knees. Prolonged walks in improper shoes are also a common cause of injuries in people over 60. Proper shoes that fit well are essential for all ages, but they are critical for the elderly. So, it is noteworthy to remember when you do go out with your parents.

What Is The Best Remedy For An Overuse Knee Injury?

There are several things you can do at home to decrease patellofemoral pain (runner’s knee or an overuse knee injury):

  1. Take a break from activities that cause pain
  2. Wear a brace to protect the knee joint
  3. Ice the knee for 15-minutes every 2-3 hours
