Health and Wellness
January 15, 2024•1 min read

Whether you’re experiencing recent knee pain or dealing with a long-standing ache that affects your daily activities, it’s crucial to understand the factors contributing to it. Here are five common factors that can contribute to knee pain:

Gender Disparity: It’s been observed that women are more prone to developing knee problems compared to men. Factors such as wider hips in females can increase the likelihood.

Age-related Degeneration: Years of use and strain gradually impact the health of our knees.

Weight Impact: Carrying excess weight places additional stress on the knees, which can exacerbate pain and increase the risk of developing knee-related conditions.

Overexertion and Injuries: While exercise is essential for maintaining overall health, pushing yourself too hard can lead to injuries and knee pain.

Smoking and Musculoskeletal Health: Smoking has been linked to various musculoskeletal issues, including joint pain and impaired healing.
