Knee Overload: Symptoms, Treatment, and Relief
Knee overload is a common problem that can cause pain and limited mobility. This condition can affect both athletes and individuals with more sedentary lifestyles. In this article, we will go through the most common symptoms, treatment options, and how specially designed knee supports can help alleviate discomfort.
Symptoms of knee overload often include pain in and around the knee joint, especially when bearing weight. Many also experience swelling around the knee, stiffness (particularly after inactivity or in the morning), reduced mobility in the knee joint, and a feeling of weakness in the knee. In some cases, one may also hear cracking or popping sounds during movement.
Treatment of knee overload can vary depending on the severity of the symptoms. Common methods include rest, ice treatment, physiotherapy, and in some cases, anti-inflammatory medications. An increasingly popular method for managing knee pain is the use of specially designed knee braces.
