The knee is a complex joint that comprises bones, ligaments, tendons, and cartilage that work together to support joint function. Knee pain is a common problem usually associated with general wear and tear from daily activities like walking, bending, standing, and lifting. It can also result from some injury, mechanical problems, types of arthritis, and other medical issues.
Knee pain is not only debilitating but also affects your movement and range of motion. If left untreated, it may result in long-term damage and mobility issues. An MRI can help your doctor see what might be causing your symptoms.
