| Knee pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints that bring patients to our clinics. With the trend of an increasingly active society, the number of knee problems is steadily increasing. The knee's major role is to bend and straighten. The knee is a little more complicated than just a hinge, it also rotates and twists.
