Understanding Knee Pain in NYC

 

The knee is a complex joint that bears a significant load, making it prone to injury and degenerative conditions. Knee pain can range from mild discomfort to debilitating pain that impacts your ability to walk, run, or perform daily activities. Our NYC-based team of specialists understands the intricacies of knee health and provides comprehensive treatment options to address the source of your pain, enabling you to regain control of your movement and lifestyle.

​

When to See a Doctor

 

Knee pain can impact every part of your daily routine, and it's important to know when medical care is necessary. You should consider seeing a doctor if you experience:

​

• Persistent knee pain lasting more than two weeks without improvement

• Severe pain that interferes with daily activities, such as walking or climbing stairs

• Swelling, warmth, or redness around the knee joint

• Pain accompanied by a clicking, popping, or locking sensation

• Difficulty bearing weight on the affected knee

• Limited range of motion or stiffness that doesn’t improve with rest

• Pain following an injury or accident

​

These symptoms may indicate underlying issues, such as ligament tears, cartilage damage, or arthritis, which can benefit from professional assessment and targeted treatment.

​

Common Causes of Knee Pain Treated in NYC

 

We treat a wide range of conditions contributing to knee pain, including:

​

• Degenerative Arthritis – This form of arthritis affects the cartilage in the knee, causing pain, stiffness, and limited mobility.

• Knee Pain from Overuse or Trauma – Chronic knee pain often results from overuse or previous injuries that have weakened the joint, leading to inflammation and discomfort.

• Sports Injuries – Sports-related injuries, such as ligament sprains, tendinitis, and fractures, can severely impact knee stability and function.

• Meniscal Tears – Tearing of the knee’s meniscus, the cartilage that cushions the joint, can lead to swelling, stiffness, and pain during movement.

• Joint Swelling – Inflammation in the knee joint from various causes, including injury and arthritis, which leads to pain, heat, and limited mobility.

• Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy / Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) – A chronic pain condition that can occur in the knee following trauma, surgery, or injury, causing persistent, severe pain.

• Work Injuries and Car Accidents – Physical trauma from workplace accidents or vehicle collisions can directly impact the knee, resulting in both acute and chronic pain.

• Stem Cell Therapy for Knees – An effective, non-surgical approach for treating degenerative conditions or injuries in the knee by promoting natural healing.

Comprehensive Knee Pain Treatments in NYC

 

Our non-surgical treatment approach in New York City offers a range of advanced therapies to relieve knee pain and restore function. Following a detailed diagnosis, our specialists develop a customized treatment plan that may include:

​

Conservative Therapies for Knee Pain Relief

​

• Physical Therapy – A targeted exercise regimen to strengthen the muscles supporting the knee, improve joint stability, and enhance flexibility, all essential for reducing pain and preventing future injuries.

• Lifestyle Modifications – Simple, sustainable changes such as weight management, using supportive footwear, and incorporating low-impact exercise can reduce stress on the knee and help prevent further pain.

​

Interventional Pain Management for Knee Pain

 

We offer a variety of advanced, minimally invasive procedures that directly target knee pain and inflammation:

​

• Joint and Bursa Injections for the Knee – These injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication to the knee joint or surrounding bursa, providing quick relief from pain and reducing inflammation.

• Peripheral Stimulator Trials and Implantations – Peripheral nerve stimulators can provide relief for chronic knee pain by blocking pain signals from nerves that impact the knee.

• Prolotherapy – A regenerative treatment involving injections that stimulate the healing of ligaments and tendons in the knee, improving stability and reducing pain.

​

Regenerative Therapies for Long-Term Knee Health

​

• Stem Cell Therapy – By utilizing the body’s own stem cells, this treatment supports the repair of damaged knee tissues, helping to regenerate cartilage and alleviate symptoms of arthritis and injury.

• Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy – PRP therapy harnesses the body’s natural healing properties to reduce inflammation and promote tissue repair in the knee, especially beneficial for chronic conditions and injuries such as meniscal tears.
