Condition

Knee pain.

Knee pain can come from the kneecap joint, tendons, ligaments, meniscus, cartilage, arthritis, or training overload.

What patients notice

Pain may occur with stairs, squats, running, jumping, kneeling, or prolonged sitting. Swelling, catching, locking, or instability can point toward a more specific injury pattern.

Sports medicine care focuses on identifying the pain generator and creating a plan that protects the knee while restoring strength and function.

How it is treated

Treatment depends on the cause and may include strengthening, mobility work, training modifications, bracing, medication guidance, or physical therapy.

For arthritis or chronic tendon problems, Dr. Jones may discuss ultrasound-guided injections, PRP, or other non-operative options when appropriate.
