It is prone to various injuries and conditions such as ligament tears, meniscus tears, arthritis, and tendonitis, which require proper diagnosis and treatment. Treatment options can range from conservative measures such as rest, physical therapy, and medication to more invasive interventions like surgery. Therefore, the knee is not a simple structure and its treatment can be quite challenging.
