Right Knee Pain — Which Doctor Should I See?

Common causes include injury, arthritis, meniscus tears, ligament sprains, patellar problems, bursitis, and tendinitis. Pain can result from sports activities, overuse, or degenerative conditions.

Seek medical attention if pain is severe, persistent for more than a few weeks, accompanied by swelling or instability, limits your mobility, or follows a significant injury or trauma.

Try RICE method: Rest, Ice (15-20 min), Compression, and Elevation. Over-the-counter pain relievers, gentle stretching, and avoiding activities that worsen pain may help until you see a doctor.
