Did you know that your knee is a very complex joint? It contains very many fine structures that make the knee one of the most solid joints in the human body and at the same time one of the most vulnerable. Thanks to a complex cooperation between muscles, (cruciate) ligaments and the meniscus, the knee can bend and stretch, rotate, direct lateral forces and absorb them too! At the same time, these properties also make the knee very vulnerable and susceptible to wear and tear or injury.

 

Common knee problems

With every step or movement you make with your leg, your knee is strained. Not surprisingly, knee problems are very annoying! Knee complaints can be caused by incorrect movement, overuse or external trauma, among other things.

Are you in pain? Then keep a close eye on this! What seems not too bad at first can quickly turn into a serious injury! Take rest, but keep moving (responsibly). It is also important to do exercises to strengthen the muscles in the area where you have complaints.

During your first appointment at FriskFysio, an interview and comprehensive examination will take place and your symptoms will be identified by one of our professionals. Based on this outcome, we will determine which treatment best suits your complaint(s). Together, we will then draw up a clear treatment plan and you will be given exercises to take home.
