Bad / Weak Knees



Knee pain caused by bad or weak knees is a common complaint among people who have injured knees, including ruptured ligament or torn cartilage. But some medical conditions can also bring you to your knees, including arthritis, gout, and infections. Depending on the type and severity of damage caused to the knee and the surrounding tissues, knee pain can be a minor annoyance, causing an occasional twinge when you kneel down or exercise strenuously, or it may lead to complete immobility and severe discomfort.

Minor cases of knee pain can be treated at home using a few natural remedies.  However, severe injuries, such as a ruptured ligament or tendon, require surgical intervention.

Causes and Risk Factors

Generally, bad knees are associated with injured, painful knees whereas weak knees make people more susceptible to knee injuries and subsequent consequences.

Knee pain can be caused by internal as well as external knee injuries. Injuries may affect any of the internal organs like ligaments, tendons, cysts, meniscus (cushiony cartilage in the knee), and knee bones thereby causing excruciating pain. Ligament tear, meniscus tear, tendonitis, knee fracture, and partial or total dislocation of kneecap are some of the injuries that cause bad knees.

 
In addition to the injuries, there are other conditions and diseases that may increase the risk of acquiring bad knees. Arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and Baker’s cyst are some of the common conditions that affect joints, bones, and soft tissues, particularly those surrounding the knees.
