Knee Pain

Well, guess what?

It won't magically get better if you ignore it.

Rest is not best.

In fact, if it's a very recent injury and you felt a lot of pain when it happened, or maybe you don’t even know how it happened? Do you have extensive bruising and inflammation, and your Knee just doesn’t feel right – you need to get checked out by your family doctor to see what's gone wrong.

Plus, you’re probably going to need something for the pain.

But remember, we're here for you – to help you get back on your feet in record time. So, call us if you're wondering what's gone wrong and how to fix it.

If your pain is less severe and there is minimal bruising and inflammation, you may have just sprained one of your ligaments in your Knee, which can recover in as little as 2 - 4 weeks under the right guidance and care.

If that sounds like you, don't worry. You're not alone. We see patients all the time whose Knees keep preventing them from doing what they love and letting them down. They're officially "on the bench." But there are the lucky ones – who came to see us before things got serious. Unfortunately, we see just as many patients whose sore knees worsened because they didn't seek treatment. Luckily for them, though, we're experts in physiotherapy to prevent knee surgery or your knee pain from worsening and causing permanent damage like arthritis. It's one of the most common knee rehab types at our physiotherapy clinic in Markham, Ontario.

(If you've avoided surgery so far, don't leave it to your chance. Because, in the worst-case scenario, you could end up needing knee surgery or develop a long-term disability and lose your independence altogether).

When it comes to Knee Pain, the first things patients ask us is:

or

We just expect our bodies to fix things, don’t we?

Like magic, we want to wake up one morning and feel like we did before the pain started… But months later, you're still in pain – feeling even stiffer and more uncomfortable than when it started, right?

So many patients who come to see us with Knee pain and ACL sprains say,

"I saw my doctor when the pain started. They told me it was my age/growing pains/overuse. They said I should stop what I was doing and take prescription anti-inflammatories and go back in three weeks if I was still in pain”.

They sit at home, “resting” on doctor's orders, not moving or exercising.

But nothing changes, of course – and they're back in the doctor's office three weeks later with a few more pounds added to the "Molson Muscle."

If you have a bike, the chain connecting the pedals to the gears falls off. But everything else seems ok – the bell works, there's air in the tyres, spokes are straight, and the handlebars are secure.

What happens when you try to spin the pedals?

The tires won’t turn?

Now, imagine I tell you to take your bike and REST it for three weeks.

You spray the gears with WD40 (painkillers) every day.

Then, you try the pedals again in three weeks.

What's changed?

Correct – absolutely NOTHING.

You didn't fix the problem.

The chain in your body needs attention.

No amount of rest, painkillers, or other pain-masking methods is going to fix it.

Some of these are tongue-in-cheek. We speak from many years of experience treating patients who are desperate to fix their Knee pain and avoid Knee surgery. But we also know that Knee pain is no laughing matter. It’s miserable. That’s why we’re so passionate about it – and we’re seriously good at what we do.

You don’t have to put up with Knee pain – we would love to help you get rid of it for good. All you need to do to get started is book a free appointment with one of our physiotherapists. You can do this via the telephone or a Discovery Visit at our clinic in Markham, Ontario.
