Runner’s knee is one of the most common causes of pain around the kneecap, especially in people who are active. This condition, also known as patellofemoral pain syndrome, develops when there is irritation between the kneecap and the underlying cartilage. If you’re noticing discomfort during running, squatting, going down stairs, or even sitting for long periods, it may be time to get evaluated.

Treatment options include both non-surgical and surgical methods. Non-surgical treatment consists of rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE protocol); all assist in controlling pain and swelling. Anti-inflammatory medications may be prescribed to reduce pain.

Consistency is key: performing these exercises daily can help maintain healthy cartilage, improve circulation, and keep your knees mobile as you age. Remember to move mindfully, avoid pushing into pain, and use proper form to maximize benefits. Even dedicating just 10–15 minutes a day to these simple movements can have a big impact on your overall knee health and functional strength.

Healthy knees support an active, independent lifestyle, so start incorporating these exercises today and give your joints the attention they deserve!

Not all pain is the same, and knowing the difference can make all the difference.

Acute pain is your body’s immediate response to an injury, accident, or surgery. It’s sudden, sharp, and usually short-term.

With the right treatment and healing time, it often goes away completely.
Chronic pain, on the other hand, lingers long after the initial injury or condition has healed. It may be dull, burning, or throbbing and often interferes with sleep, work, and everyday activities.
Chronic pain can also take a toll on your mental health, leading to frustration or fatigue.
At AOKC, our team specializes in identifying the source of both acute and chronic pain.
Whether your pain is temporary or long-term, we’re here to guide you toward solutions that help you move, heal, and get back to living life fully.

Injuries happen fast but healing takes the right care.
If you’ve rolled an ankle, taken a fall, or bumped a limb hard enough to bruise, it’s tempting to rest and hope for the best. But some fractures can be subtle and still cause long-term damage if left untreated.

Common signs of a fracture include:
🔸 Swelling that doesn’t improve
🔸 Difficulty moving the joint
🔸 Pain with walking or pressure
🔸 Unusual bruising, crunching, or deformity

At AOKC, our team of board-certified orthopedic specialists will provide a fast, accurate diagnosis and a personalized care plan. With on-site imaging, fracture repair services, and physical therapy, we help you recover fully and confidently from day one.

You don’t need to live in pain or guess what’s going on.
We’re here to help.
