If you’re asking yourself ‘what’s the cause of my knee pain?’ or ‘what kind of knee pain do I have?’ (so that you can look up solutions to your knee pain on YouTube) the position of your knee pain will tell you a lot.

THE MOST COMMON KNEE PAIN TYPES?
Knee pain during running (or actually kneecap pain while running) is usually just that… Runner’s Knee (PATELLOFEMORAL PAIN SYNDROME, or it’s old name: Chondromalacia Patella) If you get knee pain while cycling it will often be the same thing. Same with knee pain with stairs.

Knee pain while squatting could be Runner’s Knee, but if you get pain in the tendon below the kneecap, it’s more likely to be Patellar Tendonitis or Jumper’s Knee.

Meniscus Tears will give you pain on the inside of the knee that is a localised pain, can feel as if it gets stuck, or feel like it’s going to give way, and often it’s hard to fully straighten or fully bend your knee.

Knee pain on the outside of the knee is usually Iliotibial Band Syndrome

ALSO COVERED:
Infrapatellar Fat Pad Syndrome (Hoffa's Syndrome)
Osgood-Schlatter Disease
Medial Collateral Ligament Tear
Iliotibial Band Syndrome
Osteoarthritic Knee Pain
Pes Anserine Bursitis.
Quadriceps Tendinopathy
Popliteus Strain
Baker’s Cyst
ACL Or PCL Tear/Rupture

    pov: your watching this while your knee hurts
  • @stevemqn4053
    Thank you for actually showing the Knee and locations. Most videos show pictures or diagrams, and explanations that are hard to relate to for the average person. Your video helps quickly diagnose the possible issue with a REAL Knee!
  • The only video that has explained Pes Anserine Bursitis. Nowhere have I been able to find out what that pain is, not even from specialists. Thank you so much.
  • @zoilamier191
    You are great explaining the different types and location of knee pain. Thank you!
  • @teatowel11
    Excellent video. Very descriptive yet concise. I found it to be just the right amount of detail to help people determine the kind of pain they may be experiencing.
  • Found your videos very informative. I have knee pain around the knee cap and back. Can't straighten it without killing me. Had x rays and doing pt after working 10 to 11hours a day, sometimes 7 days and still hurts ! Thank you for at least showing me what it could be! Much appreciated from Spokane, Washington ! Oh and I go up and down stairs
  • @bettierusso5410
    Thank you! I am getting a very VERY painful outer knee and it is probably the outer tendon. I have severe arthritis and severe degenerative bone disease, but this is a pain I have never felt. It is sharp, agonizing, and feels like someone has lit a match and is burning me from the inside. Your explanation is better than any other I have seen.
  • @EctoMorpheus
    Great video, thanks! There are so many videos out there on how to treat specific kinds of knee pain, but this is the only clear one I've found to help diagnose which kind of pain I have in the first place. Invaluable!
  • @buck_up
    *THANK YOU*... Went to the runners knee video afterwards and couldn't be more grateful!
  • @merkury06
    I had Osgood-Schlatter Disease as a kid, now 40 years later after the shutdown and loss of leg strength I have knee pain in the same knee from adolescence. Your video helped a lot. Thanks.
  • @SangeetaRathod
    Thank you!! Very short and crisp video. It’s also full of very important differences. Thank you!!
  • Just a pleasure to view your posts. Qualified, to the point and informative. Thanks again !
  • Great video! Very clear and well explained without a profusion of irrelevant talking. Well done.
  • @desaljs
    Nicely done. As someone who treats these conditions, this was an excellent review.
  • @adam346
    42 seconds and I already learned what my issue is... I don't do much running anymore and do mostly cycling/walking but I started doing squats and I get that pain so... thanks! Looking at that vid on how to fix it!
  • @mburkitt7678
    Thank you for a concise explanation of the possibilities. I wouldn't say any of these match mine, though. I have always been active through sports and outdoor activities, so at age 60+ my joints have seen their share of use. I have noticeable general swelling across the knee above the joint, stiffness to the point of limited motion, and a pain throughout the joint when under stress to the point I no longer trust a natural stride on stairs. An orthopedic surgeon took x-rays and diagnosed reduced cartilage to a point of near bone-on-bone and the associated joint irritation. I don't understand though the soft tissue issues surrounding the joint.
  • Omg . You are amazing at explaining all the knee pains. I've done every injury to both of my knees From breaking my knee, ACL, PCL in both knees smashing my knee cap you name it I've had it. I've had loads of surgery and years of physio over the years this mostly to sport and some silly moments in my life. I just trying to stop the pain and how not to aggravate my knees, shopping trolleys after worst and shiny floors as well as high heels your small adjustments makes a massive difference I think how you explained the pain in the knee has been very helpful and more of it should be in doctors surgeries to help patients Thank you and keep up the good work
  • @dkleath8697
    One of my kneecaps ( just that bone) has been crushed, no surgery available, I was hoping a similar injury might be addressed. Thank you for helping those you could / my prayers go out for everyone else, too💞
  • @chriscross1031
    Had a patella dislocation around October last year during training. Got back to training around February, and it wasn't untill recently that I've felt the area above my kneecap hurt while doing everyday things like walking, bending my knees and climbing up stairs. It's good that there are people in the world willing to make a short video on this type of things. Stay Blessed ❤
