PRP Therapy Doctor For Knee Pain In Valencia - Dr Raj Desai

Knee Pain

The knee is a complicated joint that is prone to numerous injuries and conditions. Around one in four adults experiences knee pain, which makes it a frequent concern in musculoskeletal health. These problems can arise at any stage of life, though they are especially common among athletes, seniors, and individuals carrying excess weight. The intensity of knee pain can differ from slight aches that minimally affect daily tasks to severe discomfort that may cause significant limitations and potentially necessitate surgery.

Common Causes

Knee pain isn’t an inevitable part of growing older, and there are many possible reasons why it may occur. In younger individuals, the most frequent cause is injury. Given that the knee is a highly intricate joint made up of three primary bones (the femur, tibia, and patella) and four primary ligaments, it’s particularly vulnerable to damage.

In contrast, osteoarthritis is the leading cause of knee discomfort for older adults. While this degenerative joint condition can affect various joints, the knee is among the most commonly impacted areas. Other common causes of knee pain include Cartilage Injuries, Ligament Injuries, Tendinitis, and Knee Bursitis.

Common Causes

Treatments

The knee is a weight-bearing joint that depends on the coordinated function of bone, cartilage, ligaments, tendons, and surrounding muscles. Knee pain may result from osteoarthritis, cartilage injury, ligament injury, tendinopathy, bursitis, overuse, or other musculoskeletal problems.

Treatment should be based on the source and severity of the problem. Dr. Raj Desai may use rehabilitation, activity modification, medication management, image-guided procedures, PRP, or BMAC when appropriate. BMAC may be considered as a regenerative option for selected patients with knee pain after an individual evaluation.

The goal of care is to address pain and function while matching treatment to the patient’s diagnosis, activity level, prior care, and clinical findings. No regenerative procedure is appropriate for every knee condition.
