Knee Cap ProblemsKnee cap problems can be tricky to treat so an accurate assessment and investigations are essential to secure a precise diagnosis and allow an appropriate treatment plan to be made.
Knee Ligament InjuriesSignificant twisting injuries can sometimes result in damage to one or more of the major ligaments that support the knee.
Knee PainKnee pain affects patients of all ages and has a large variety of causes. At your outpatient appointment our consultants will assess your pain and examine your knee in detail.
Overuse InjuriesA plica is an extra fold of tissue lining the inside of the knee. It is usually found on the inner side of the joint. Having a plica is a common occurrence and the majority of people who have plicae do not have symptoms.
