Common Knee Injuries
In most cases, athletes suffer knee injuries as the result of a sudden trauma or impact such as a direct hit to the knee or from a change of direction while the foot is planted. In other instances, knee injuries may be the result of overexertion and muscular imbalance which forces the knee to be repetitively strained.
It is important to see a Sports Medicine Specialist at the first sign of knee pain as many knee conditions are progressive and will worsen if left untreated.
