June 21, 2024

Leg and knee pain are increasingly common, affecting not only older adults but also active individuals and recreational athletes. In this episode on CAPITAL 95.8FM with Senior Consultant Pain Specialist Dr. Bernard Lee, the everyday causes of leg and knee pain are discussed alongside expert advice to help listeners recognise when symptoms should not be ignored and what treatment options are available.

In this episode, Dr. Lee explains:

• Why leg and knee pain are no longer just “wear and tear” issues, with modern lifestyles, prolonged standing, and repetitive strain contributing to discomfort
• The range of underlying causes, including tendon inflammation, ligament strain, cartilage degeneration, muscle imbalance, and nerve irritation
• Red flags that signal it is time to seek medical assessment
• How early evaluation and targeted treatments such as Platelet-rich Plasma, PRP, can help reduce inflammation, support healing, and prevent chronic pain or reduced mobility
