Severe pain in the knee – a fairly widespread phenomenon.
Many believe that the pain in the knee joints is characteristic of elderly people, but in fact such pain can haunt a person at any age, and this may be for several reasons.
American experts called several reasons for severe pain in my knees. The most common ones:
1) Trauma.
The main reason is the knee injury. Most often seen in sports, can be caused by careless movements or a very high stress on the joint.
2) Bursitis of the knee.
Can be caused by a strong blow to the knee, or frequent stress on the joint.
3) Rheumatoid arthritis – autoimmune disease.
4) Metabolic problems – in particular, gout.
5) Infectious diseases.
