Causes

The knee joint is prone to problems because it takes the full weight of your body day-to-day.

Anterior knee pain can be caused by a range of factors, including:

  • Joint and muscle imbalance
  • Being overweight or obese – find out if you are a healthy weight
  • Biomechanics – how your body functions as a whole and distributes weight
  • Over training – running and weight bearing sports
  • Repetitive action or strain on the knee
  • Injury or trauma
