Joints, knee & hip
Assessment of knee and hip pain; options discussed after exam.
Your knees and hips carry your weight with every step, which is why their pain limits so much of daily life: climbing stairs, prayer, or a short walk.
At Mazoon we start by listening to the story of your pain, examine the joint carefully, and use X-rays when needed, so we reach a clear diagnosis and a plan that suits your age and activity.
Conditions we assess
- Knee and hip osteoarthritis
- Knee pain on stairs or after long sitting
- Meniscus injuries
- Joint swelling and morning stiffness
- Hip and pelvic pain
- Tendon and bursa inflammation around joints
When should you see a doctor?
- Pain lasting over two weeks or waking you at night
- Clear swelling that does not settle with rest
- Difficulty bearing weight or a feeling of instability
- Painful clicking or locking of the knee
In an emergency, go to the nearest emergency department immediately.
