The knee is a large, intricate joint consisting of bones, cartilage, muscles, tendons, and ligaments that work as one to allow for the joint’s hinge-like motion. However, if any of these components are overused, inflamed, or damaged, it may result in knee pain. To alleviate knee pain quickly and effectively, it’s crucial you receive a proper diagnosis and individualized treatment plan from an experienced medical professional. Many individuals in Rock Springs, Wyoming, trust the knee specialists at Premier Bone & Joint Centers to provide expert care and accurate diagnoses.
