Other Treatments For Knee Pain
Anti-inflammatory medicines, pain medicines, assistive devices for walking, physical therapy, cortisone injections, weight loss and exercise and conditioning are other treatments for knee pain.
"When you're dealing with inflammatory and arthritic conditions of the knee you really want to try all non-surgical options that you can and the longer you delay it, the better the chance that technology improves," says Dr. Harlan Selesnick, Orthopedic Surgeon at Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute. He recommends preventing addiction to pain killers if the pain is too bad.
