Understanding Knee Pain

Knee Pain can affect people of all ages — from athletes to office workers. Around 3.5% of the working population report a work-related injury or illness annually (Australian Bureau of Statistics), with sprains, strains or dislocations among the most common (Safe Work Australia). In sport, thousands of hospital admissions occur each year for injuries in high-impact activities (Australian Institute of Health & Welfare).

Types of Knee Pain

  • Acute pain – sudden onset from injury or trauma.
  • Chronic pain – lasting weeks or months, often linked to overuse or degeneration.
  • Referred pain – originating from another area but felt in the Knee Pain region.
  • Post-surgical pain – common after procedures, requiring structured rehab.
  • Nerve-related pain – tingling, numbness, or burning sensations indicating neural involvement.

Common Causes & Conditions

Our clinicians frequently diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions affecting the Knee Pain, including:

  • Sports injuries (e.g., ligament tears, strains)
  • Overuse syndromes
  • Arthritis and degenerative changes
  • Nerve entrapments
  • Postural or biomechanical issues

About 24% of work-related injuries are caused by lifting, pushing, pulling or bending (Safe Work Australia), stressing joints like the Knee Pain region.
