Knee pain can stem from various sources, affecting the knee joint, surrounding muscles, ligaments, tendons, and cartilage. The knee joint is one of the body's largest and most complex joints, comprising the thighbone, shinbone, kneecap (patella), and supporting structures. Common causes of knee problems include:
Sudden injuries from sports or accidents
Overuse injuries from repetitive activities
Age-related wear and tear leading to osteoarthritis
Inflammation of supporting structures
Structural abnormalities affecting knee function

Knee arthritis or osteoarthritis is the most common disease that can affect people of all ages, but it is more common in older adults as cartilage naturally wears down over time (osteoarthritis). Individuals with autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis are also at risk, as the body’s immune system attacks the knee joint. Risk increases for those with previous knee injuries, obesity, or a family history of arthritis.
