The Best Doctor for Treating Knee Osteoarthritis

What Is Knee Osteoarthritis?

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is the most common condition that causes pain in the joints in people from childhood to adulthood. It is considered to be one of the world's most common illnesses. As people get older the problem gets more common and it is also more common if a person is overweight, or have experienced an injury to the knee. KOA starts with damage and loss of cartilage on the end of the bones in the knee. This causes the bones to rub against each other, creating extreme knee pain, stiffness and inflammation with reduced mobility of the knee. A person suffering with KOA will usually hear crackling or crunching sounds when they bend or straighten their knee.

Medical science has recently introduced a new modern form of non-surgical treatment, which enables individuals with knee Osteoarthritis to get their knee back to normal use, without the use of surgery. Dr. Mohamed Koura who specializes in joint treatment and management of joint pain, offers advanced interventional techniques to provide knee osteoarthritis pain relief through Radio frequency treatments and PRP Injections.
