Knee arthritis can affect people of all ages. It’s painful, impairs movement and causes swelling of the joint. Some people are so disabled by it that they can’t work anymore.
Generally, athletes should see a healthcare provider for pain lasting more than 48 hours and other adults should see an expert if there seems to be no change for three weeks. Generally, most healthcare providers recommend that you schedule an appointment as soon as you notice that your symptoms impact the way you live.
Locking or Catching Sensations: If your knee feels like it’s “catching” or “locking” during movement, it may be a sign of structural problems that need evaluation and treatment. Loss of Range of Motion: A decrease in your knee’s range of motion, especially if accompanied by noises, should not be overlooked.
Contact your provider if: You cannot bear weight on your knee. You have severe pain, even when not bearing weight. Your knee buckles, clicks, or locks.
The knee may lock or stick during movement. It may creak, click, snap, or make a grinding noise (crepitus). Pain may cause a feeling of weakness or buckling in the knee. Many people with arthritis note increased joint pain with changes in the weather.
