Knee pain isn’t always just a knee problem.
Sometimes the way your hip, pelvis or foot is moving changes the alignment of the leg and puts more load through the knee.
For example, if the hip drops in or the foot rolls in too much, the knee may end up collapsing inward and working harder every time you walk, squat, run or go downstairs.
So if your knee keeps getting sore, it can be worth looking at the whole chain — not just the painful spot.
Sometimes the knee is just the middle man.
