Frequently Asked Questions

What causes knee pain in young adults?

In young adults, knee pain is most commonly caused by sports injuries — ACL tears, meniscal tears, patellar instability, and cartilage injuries. Overuse conditions like IT band syndrome and patellar tendinitis are also common. Dr. Chetan M. Dojode FRCS provides specialist assessment and sports-focused treatment.

When should I see a doctor for knee pain?

See a specialist if knee pain is persistent for more than 2 weeks, is severe, is associated with swelling, locking, instability or giving way, or is preventing normal daily activities or sport. Early assessment leads to better outcomes and avoids progression.

Can knee pain be treated without surgery?

Yes — in many cases. Physiotherapy, PRP injections, hyaluronic acid injections, and activity modification can effectively manage mild to moderate knee arthritis and many sports injuries. Surgery is recommended only when non-surgical options have been optimised and symptoms remain significant.

What is PRP injection for knee pain?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) involves concentrating growth factors from your own blood and injecting them into the knee to reduce inflammation and stimulate healing. Evidence supports PRP for mild to moderate knee arthritis — with results lasting 6–12 months on average.
