Knee Pain Conditions

What is Knee Osteoarthritis?

The most common type of arthritis is osteoarthritis, which affects the knees. Millions of people worldwide have it. It results from the gradual wear away of cushions known as cartilage in the knee joint, which causes pain, stiffness, and decreased mobility. The roles of conditions causing this, among others, include advancing age, obesity, previous injuries to the joints, and family antecedents. As the cartilage degenerates, bones may rub against each other, causing inflammation and pain. The symptoms often begin slowly, involving painful aching in the joint during physical activities. However, they can quickly evolve into chronic, debilitating pain that a person might experience; it could also interfere with daily activities. Early onset of these symptoms enables the right knee pain treatment.

Diagnosis of Knee Osteoarthritis

Here at Tarabichi Joint Care, we work on an overall approach to diagnosing knee osteoarthritis. For us, it includes the following considerations:

These individual assessments enable us to formulate an individually tailored treatment program uniquely geared toward your disease.

  • Medical History: Our physician understands your symptoms, lifestyle, and previous injuries.
  • Physical Examination: Our doctor will check the knee for a degree of movement, swelling, and tenderness.
  • Imaging Tests: X-rays or MRIs may be used to understand the severity of cartilage loss and joint damage.

Treatment Options for Knee Osteoarthritis

Surgical Treatments

If non-surgical options are insufficient, we also provide advanced surgical treatments:

  • Knee Replacement in Dubai: Partial or complete knee replacement occurs when the condition becomes critically challenging, restoring function and relieving pain.
  • Arthroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure to clean the joint and remove damaged cartilage.
  • Osteotomy: Realigning bones to relieve pressure on the knee joint.

We will choose which one is more suitable based on the severity of your condition, age, and lifestyle.

Non-Surgical Treatments

Knee osteoarthritis is usually addressed through a variety of treatments. At Tarabichi Joint Care, our experienced doctors offer a variety of treatments, including:

  • Physical Therapy: Exercise for strengthening the adjunct muscles will stabilize the knee and reduce the level of pain.
  • Medications: NSAIDs and anti-inflammatory medications for managing symptoms.
  • Injections: For a temporary effect, steroid or hyaluronic acid injections can dissipate inflammation and pain.
  • Weight loss : Some weight reduction, to a small degree, significantly reduces knee pain from osteoarthritis.
  • Exercise : Strengthening the muscles surrounding the knee stabilizes the joint and reduces pain. Stretching exercises keep the knee joint in motion and flexible.
  • Using devices such as braces : There are two types of bracing devices: "unloader" braces that remove the load from the part of the knee bearing the weight of arthritis, and "support" braces that support the entire knee.
