One of the most common things we see at 360 Vascular Institute:
Knee pain that isn’t actually coming from the knee.
If your pain:
• Starts when you walk
• Gets better with rest
• Hasn’t improved with usual treatment
…it may be related to blood flow, not just the joint.
And even when it is arthritis, there’s more to the story.
Arthritis isn’t just “bone on bone.”
In many cases, pain is also driven by inflammation inside the joint— sometimes linked to abnormal blood vessels in the joint.
That’s why some knee pain doesn’t respond the way people expect.
Dr. Sudi recently shared more on this in a CityScene Magazine article:

If you’re dealing with ongoing knee pain or know someone who is, this may be helpful to consider.
