While knee pain can sometimes go away on its own, especially if it’s due to overuse, there are several situations when you’d want to visit a knee pain specialist. If your knee pain has been interfering with your daily life or is getting worse, a knee pain specialist can help you determine what’s going on and develop the best treatment plan.
Some of the signs indicating you should schedule an appointment include:
- Inability to bear weight on your knee.
- Limited range of motion.
- Swelling or stiffness.
- Feeling like your knee “gives out” when you are walking.
- Severe pain.
