If climbing stairs makes your knees ache, you’re not alone. Pain going up the stairs can be a key sign of certain underlying knee issues—especially involving the kneecap (patella) or the cartilage beneath it.

Here are a few common causes:

🔹 Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (Runner’s Knee) – Often caused by muscle imbalances or poor alignment that puts pressure on the kneecap during movement.

🔹 Chondromalacia Patella – A softening or breakdown of the cartilage under the kneecap, which can make stairs particularly painful.

🔹 Quadriceps Weakness – Weak thigh muscles can shift more load to the knee joint, making elevation harder on your knees.

🔹 Early Arthritis – Going upstairs requires more joint flexion and load-bearing—both of which can aggravate arthritic changes.

As we age, it’s common to feel a little more stiffness or soreness in the knees—but chronic knee pain isn’t something you just have to “accept.”

Here’s why age-related knee pain happens—and what you can do about it:

🔹 Cartilage Wears Down – Years of movement naturally thin the protective cartilage in your joints, which can lead to osteoarthritis.
🔹 Muscles & Tendons Weaken – Supporting muscles may lose strength or flexibility, adding stress to the joint.
🔹 Inflammation Increases – Age-related conditions like arthritis can cause swelling and stiffness that limit your mobility.

But here’s the good news: Knee pain doesn’t have to be your new normal. With the right care it’s possible to manage symptoms and stay active at every stage of life.

Not all knee pain is the same—and finding the source is key to long-term relief. Here are some of the most common causes:

🔹 Osteoarthritis – Wear-and-tear that breaks down cartilage and causes stiffness, swelling, and aching.
🔹 Meniscus Tears – Often from twisting injuries; can lead to locking, clicking, or instability.
🔹 Tendonitis – Inflammation of tendons from overuse or repetitive motion.
🔹 Ligament Injuries – ACL or MCL tears often result from sports or sudden stops/turns.
🔹 Bursitis – Irritation of fluid-filled sacs that cushion your joint.
🔹 Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome – Pain around the kneecap, often worsened by stairs, squatting, or sitting long periods.

Whether your pain came on suddenly or built up over time, it’s important to get an accurate diagnosis. Call 805-209-4303 to schedule a consultation and get clarity on your next steps.

Living with knee arthritis doesn’t have to mean living in constant pain—or jumping straight to surgery.

Many people find relief through non-surgical approaches like:

✔️ Viscosupplementation (Hyaluronic Acid Injections) – Helps lubricate the joint and reduce friction
✔️ Physical Therapy – Strengthens the muscles that support your knees
✔️ Medication Management – Reduces inflammation and helps manage daily discomfort
✔️ Lifestyle Modifications – Simple changes to activity levels and weight can make a big difference

Call 805-209-4303 to schedule a consultation and learn which non-surgical options may be right for you.

Knee pain from osteoarthritis can wear you down—but you may have more options than you think. One approach used to manage symptoms is hyaluronic acid injections, which can help:

✔️ Lubricate the joint
✔️ Reduce inflammation
✔️ Cushion the knee to ease pain signals

While not for everyone, these injections are one of several tools used to help relieve chronic knee pain.
