Knee pain - restore movement and stability with professional physiotherapy in Sofia
Knee pain is one of the most common reasons people seek help from a physiotherapist or rehabilitation specialist.
It may appear suddenly after an injury, or gradually - for no apparent reason. Some people feel clicking, swelling, tightness or pain when going down stairs, without knowing exactly what is happening.
If you are in a similar situation - this is perfectly normal.
You don't have to make a diagnosis yourself - we'll make sure we find out what causes the pain и how to remove it safely and effectively.
В Office Therapy Sofia (Lozenets district) We believe that proper care begins with an accurate diagnosis.
Our goal is not just to relieve pain, but to restore the natural function of the knee and help you move freely, confidently and without fear.
Why the knee starts to hurt
The reasons can be different - from mild congestion to structural changes.
The most common are:
- Gonarthrosis (arthrosis of the knee) - wear of articular cartilage
- Meniscus injuries - after a sports injury or twisting
- Tendinitis (inflammation of the tendons) - common in active sports
- Patellofemoral syndrome - pain behind the knee cap
- Postoperative conditions - pain and restriction after arthroscopy or joint replacement
- Improper posture, gait or muscle imbalance
- Swelling and clicking under load
Even without a clear diagnosis, the body always gives signals - pain, swelling, tightness, restricted movement.
Our task is to understand why and to propose the most appropriate solution.
Diagnosis and assessment of the condition
Before any therapy, in Office Therapy Sofia We conduct detailed diagnostics:
- assess the range of motion and stability of the joint;
- we test muscle balance, gait and loading;
- we perform functional and clinical tests for meniscus and ligaments.
If necessary, we analyze and imaging studies (MRI, X-ray, ultrasonography), to determine the degree of disability.
This is how we create individual treatment plan, aimed at the cause - not just the symptom.
