Knee pain and conditions that may be influenced by lower-limb movement and foot function.
You may wonder what your feet have to do with your knee pain - and we say they can have a whole lot to do with your knee pain! If you're feet aren't sitting evenly, this can place pressure further up your body - pressure can lead to pain in the knees and even further up to your hips and back.
Patellofemoral pain syndrome is a very common knee complaint that can occur in young and old alike. It presents as pain which is located behind the kneecap - where your patella comes into contact with your knee bone (femur) at the patellofemoral joint. The pain is usually due to excessive pressure at the patellofemoral joint caused by poor alignment of the patella.
