Knee osteonecrosis is a condition characterised by the death of bone tissue in the knee joint due to a lack of blood supply.

Knee osteoarthritis is a prevalent degenerative joint condition affecting the knees. It primarily involves the cartilage within the joint breaking down, leading to pain, stiffness, and decreased joint function. The condition often results from wear and tear or ageing and can also be linked to obesity, previous knee injuries, or genetic predispositions.

Patellar tendinitis, also known as jumper’s knee, is an injury that affects the tendon connecting the kneecap (patella) to the shinbone. It’s typically caused by repetitive stress on the patellar tendon, often due to activities that involve jumping or running.

Hip cartilage injury refers to damage or trauma to the cartilage in the hip joint, which can result from various causes, affecting the smooth surface that covers the ends of the bones in the hip joint.

A meniscus tear is like a small, crescent-shaped shock absorber inside your knee getting damaged. Your knee has two menisci, one on each side, and they help cushion and stabilise your joint.

A posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tear is similar to a stretchy band inside your knee getting damaged. Your knee has ligaments that stabilise it, and when the PCL tears, it can lead to pain, swelling, and instability.

An anterior cruciate ligament tear, often called an ACL tear, is like a stretchy band inside your knee snapping. Your knee has ligaments that hold it together, and when the ACL tears, it can lead to pain, swelling, and instability in the knee.
