Knee Osteoarthritis Treatment Dubai | Franklin Chiropractic & Physiotherapy

What is Knee Osteoarthritis?

Knee osteoarthritis is a common, degenerative joint condition where the cartilage in the knee gradually wears down. This leads to pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced mobility, often making everyday tasks like walking, climbing stairs, or exercising uncomfortable.

At Franklin Chiropractic & Physiotherapy Dubai, we offer non-surgical, evidence-based treatments to relieve knee pain, improve joint function, and help you stay active for longer.

Common Symptoms of Knee Osteoarthritis

✔️ Knee pain that worsens with activity or prolonged standing
✔️ Stiffness, especially after rest or in the morning
✔️ Swelling or tenderness around the joint
✔️ Reduced flexibility or range of motion
✔️ Clicking, popping, or grinding sensations in the knee
✔️ Weakness or instability in the leg

What Causes Knee Osteoarthritis?

While knee osteoarthritis is often linked to age-related wear and tear, several other factors increase your risk:

• Previous knee injuries (sports or trauma)
• Excess body weight, placing more stress on the knees
• Repetitive strain or overuse
• Poor biomechanics or posture
• Weak supporting muscles around the knee
• Genetic predisposition

In Dubai, active lifestyles, sports participation, and physically demanding work can accelerate knee joint degeneration.
