Diagnosis and Treatment of Knee Pain

Knee pain can result from overuse, injury, or perhaps a predisposing condition such as arthritis. At Doveston Health, we are experienced in the diagnosis and treatment of knee pain so that you gain mobility and relief from pain.

Following our podiatrists’ comprehensive assessment, we aim to identify the primary cause of your knee pain. This may involve gait analysis and imaging investigations. Treatment regimes for knee pain may incorporate physical therapy to strengthen the muscles surrounding the knee, the provision of custom orthotics to align the limb correctly, or maybe bracing to render the joint more stable.

Additionally, you may be given lifestyle and exercise advice which helps to eliminate extra load on your knee and ensure long-term health of the joint.

In extreme instances, like ligament tears or chronic arthritis, you could benefit from improved treatment options or a referral to a consultant and surgical opinion. You can rely on Doveston Health to carefully advise and assist in the management of your knee pain, getting you back to the activities you enjoy.
