Injuries to the knee joint are amongst the most common in sporting activities. The knee is made up of four main bones- the femur (thigh bone), the tibia (shin bone), fibula (outer shin bone) and patella (kneecap). The main movements occur between the femur, patella and tibia. Each are covered by articular cartilage which is designed to decrease the frictional forces as movement occurs between the bones. Most commonly overuse, age, and traumatic injuries cause structural damage to the knee joint that may limit its function. Best treatment and exercises will help you avoid pain in the daily activities like walking, running, sitting and standing.
