Chronic knee pain is caused by a myriad of reasons. The knees are very complex and undergo such as high level of use that they are one of the most often injured areas of the body. Because we need our knees to properly walk, chronic knee pain can severely decrease our quality of life.

The knee is the largest joint of the body, and it is also the one most easily injured. The knee is made up of the lower end of the femur (the thigh bone), the upper end of the tibia (the shin bone), and the patella (the knee cap).
