Knee Pain When Bending: Causes and Non-Surgical Treatment

Learn about the causes of knee pain when bending with Dr. Mohamed Koura

When knee pain begins to appear, simple daily movements can become a burden, affecting the patient’s comfort and daily activities. This is especially noticeable when pain occurs during bending, sitting, or climbing stairs. Many patients experience knee pain without knowing the underlying cause. The pain may be mild at first but can gradually develop into a chronic problem, such as knee osteoarthritis or joint friction.

This highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis, which Dr. Mohamed Koura relies on at his clinic to identify the true cause and create an effective treatment plan. This plan uses modern therapeutic techniques and focuses on non-surgical knee pain treatment tailored to each patient’s condition.

Causes of Knee Pain When Bending

The causes of knee pain when bending are varied. One of the most common is the early stage of knee osteoarthritis, which leads to cartilage wear and pain even with simple movements. Another frequent cause is meniscus tears in the knee, which often result in acute or sudden pain, especially during bending or twisting.

Other causes include knee friction due to weak cartilage, joint friction associated with aging or excess weight, and sudden knee pain resulting from minor injuries or strains that were left untreated. All of these factors eventually lead to knee pain and difficulty with daily movements.

The Relationship Between Knee Pain and Joint Osteoarthritis

Knee osteoarthritis is one of the most well-known causes of knee pain when bending, as cartilage wear leads to bone-on-bone friction within the joint. Causes of knee osteoarthritis include aging, obesity, poor sitting posture, and repetitive joint strain.

As the condition progresses and mobility becomes difficult, patients may need treatment for knee osteoarthritis and joint friction to reduce pain and regain movement. Here, non-surgical treatment emerges as a safe and effective solution, especially for those seeking an alternative to knee replacement surgery.

Latest Non-Surgical Treatments for Knee Pain

Dr. Mohamed Koura uses a range of advanced solutions to treat knee pain, with radiofrequency therapy being one of the main methods. Radiofrequency is used to treat knee osteoarthritis and joint issues, reducing chronic pain and improving joint function.

Radiofrequency therapy for knee pain is one of the most successful modern techniques for treating knee osteoarthritis pain and is considered among the best methods for non-surgical joint osteoarthritis treatment.

In addition, various knee injections are used, such as therapeutic injections for knee osteoarthritis, including plasma injections for the knee and hyaluronic acid injections for knee osteoarthritis. These treatments help relieve pain, improve joint function, and support cartilage regeneration in the knee.

Cost of Knee Injections in Egypt

Many patients wonder about the cost of knee injections in Egypt, especially given the effectiveness of plasma injections for knee osteoarthritis. Prices vary depending on the severity of osteoarthritis and the number of sessions required, and final costs are determined after a thorough examination and diagnosis.

At Dr. Mohamed Koura’s clinic, the medical team ensures full transparency regarding treatment details and costs, choosing the most suitable injection type for each patient, making non-surgical knee pain treatment a safe and practical option.

Ignoring knee pain when bending can worsen the problem, turning it into chronic knee osteoarthritis. Early diagnosis and choosing the right knee pain treatment are essential to preserve joint health. With Dr. Mohamed Koura, the best doctor for knee pain treatment, patients receive a comprehensive treatment plan that relies on modern therapeutic techniques and focuses on non-surgical knee pain treatment, helping them regain safe mobility.

Are all cases treatable with non-surgical solutions?

Certainly not, some cases must be treated surgically, and the most appropriate technique for the patient is determined through a medical examination and the presence of imaging studies.
 

Someone attend without a reservation?

No, it is necessary to make a reservation through a phone call or social media messages.
 

Are there any risks associated with pain treatment?

There are no risks or side effects associated with non-surgical pain interventions.

How long is the required stay in Egypt for a non-surgical intervention? (for foreign patients)

The patient needs only 3 to 4 days before they can travel comfortably, and the hospital stay does not exceed 6 to 8 hours.

Can a condition be diagnosed without imaging or a medical examination?

A condition cannot be accurately assessed and a proper medical diagnosis made without a medical examination and recent imaging studies.
 

Can reservations and payments be made via Visa before attending?

Yes, there are several payment methods available through Visa or electronic wallets by making a reservation on our website.

Does obesity affect knee osteoarthritis?

Certainly, obesity is one of the causes of knee osteoarthritis.

Does radiofrequency cause nerve damage?

Radiofrequency activates the nerve and does not cause any damage to it.

Are non-surgical interventions a definitive treatment for spinal and joint diseases?

Non-surgical interventions are a definitive treatment for some cases and pain relievers for other cases, which is determined by the doctor through a medical examination.

Can a herniated disc reoccur after a medical procedure?

If the herniated disc is fully treated, there is a possibility of it reoccurring in some cases, such as not following the doctor's prescribed instructions after the intervention, experiencing an accident, or making a sudden wrong movement like lifting heavy objects.

Is the entire disc will be removed?

The entire disc is not removed due to the presence of several risks and it may exacerbate the condition. Only the protruding part that causes pain is removed.
 

Can radiofrequency remove a herniated disc?

This cannot be done with radiofrequency, but it is performed through other techniques that Dr. Koura conducts.

Can the success or failure of non-surgical intervention be judged by post-intervention radiographic imaging?

The success or failure of non-surgical interventions cannot be judged through radiographic imaging because these procedures involve making subtle changes to critical parts to address the issue. Consequently, they do not produce significant changes to avoid potential complications in the future or damage to the spine and joints, which is our primary goal.

Does spinal stenosis cause sciatica?

Spinal stenosis does not typically cause sciatica. In most cases, disc herniation is what may lead to sciatica. This does not necessarily mean that a patient with sciatica will also have spinal stenosis.

Does sciatica return after thermal ablation?

Sciatica may return if the patient does not adhere to the medical instructions provided by the doctor or in the event of an unexpected accident.

What are the causes of lower back pain?

Lower back pain can result from several causes, including a herniated disc, nerve compression, muscle strain, or chronic spinal injuries. Lifestyle factors such as prolonged sitting, muscle weakness, and excess weight can also exacerbate the problem.
