FAQs

Can exercises help knee pain?

Appropriate exercises may help improve strength and function for some causes of knee pain. The programme should

be based on assessment.

Can I walk with knee pain?

This depends on the cause and severity. Seek assessment for severe pain, inability to bear weight, marked swelling

or symptoms after a significant injury.

Will the plan change over time?

Your physiotherapist may adjust exercises and activity as your symptoms and function change.
