Knee Pain

The knee is unfortunately very susceptible to injury and can therefore affect individuals of any age. Activities such as playing sports, gardening or working in jobs that require kneeling on hard surfaces are common causes for knee injuries.

Below we shall discuss the most common causes for knee pain and look at how the OSMO Patch which is natural and drug free can help to relieve your pain.

Is knee pain affecting your work… exercise… or lifestyle?

Did you know that along with shoulder pain, knee pain would seem to account for one of the main causes of pain which directly impacts on the actual activities, work and lifestyle of many active individuals?

Before your knee injury were you generally an active person?

Individuals that are physically active or have jobs that require kneeling on hard surfaces are the most susceptible to knee pain caused by injury due to repetitive stress or impact to the knee. If you fall into this category then you already know that this can understandably be quite upsetting and frustrating as you were previously an active person. As some activities, jobs or sporting commitments may not be possible to give up or easily avoided, many people push through the pain… which will often result in further pain or a secondary injury.

Are you feeling frustrated and does it seem unfair that your injury occurred while participating in a healthy activity?

Sometimes it may seem unfair that your knee pain has occurred when you are otherwise a healthy and active individual; however it is often this very active nature that makes you susceptible to knee injury.

Did you realise that identifying if your knee pain is acute or chronic may actually help expedite your recovery?

When knee pain develops it can be classified as either ‘sudden and acute’ or ‘slow and chronic’. By identifying if your knee pain is acute or chronic you may also be able to develop the best strategy to expedite the recovery. Identifying what type of movements actually bring on or increase the intensity of the pain could also help to develop a strategy to assist with recovery! DOWNLOAD FREE REPORT

Often knee pain will not be noticeable unless you move your leg or knee in a certain direction or until you apply pressure or weight to the knee. Alternatively you could be experiencing ongoing intense knee pain even whilst resting. Either way, pain from a knee injury can be quite intense as you may unfortunately already know.

Common Causes of Knee Pain.

It can be said that most causes of knee pain fall into four main categories: tendon tear or inflammation (bursitis or tendinitis), instability, wear & tear or fracture.

1. Knee Bursitis

There are several small fluid filled sacs around the knee. They act as cushions between the bones and overlying soft tissues. These cushions help to reduce friction between the muscles and bones. Sudden impact or stress due to overuse will often cause these sacs to become inflamed and fill with fluid. This condition is known as knee bursitis and will often cause considerable pain. Bursitis knee pain is classified as either; Pes anserine Bursitis, Prepatellar Bursitis, Infrapatellar Bursitis or Suprapatellar Bursitis depending on the area of the knee that is affected.

2. Baker’s Cyst

A baker’s cyst, also known as a Popliteal Cyst occurs when a pouch of synovial fluid balloons out from the synovial joint at the back of the knee. A baker’s cyst can be very painful and can even rupture over time. For further information and to discover how the OSMO Patch can help relieve swelling and the associated pain due to a medically diagnosed baker’s cyst simply click on the link below.

3. Swollen Knee

A swollen knee due to fluid around the knee is normally the result of a soft tissue injury. Knee swelling can be very uncomfortable, painful and also restrict the movement of the knee itself. For further information and to discover how the OSMO Patch can help relieve swelling and the associated pain due to medically diagnosed soft tissue injuries in the knee simply click on the link below.

4. Knee Tendonitis

The tendons in the knee can undergo extreme loads and strain both sudden as well as over time. Due to wearing of tendons in this area knee tendonitis is a common injury. Tendonitis is normally quite painful and should not be ignored. For further information and to discover how the OSMO Patch can help relieve swelling and the associated pain due to medically diagnosed knee tendonitis simply click on the link below.

5. Knee Instability

Instability in the knee can cause movement in the knee cap. This condition usually occurs due to overuse, overweight, poor posture, or a past knee injury Treatment should normally include physical therapy and rehab and may depend on age as well as the underlying cause. In addition to strengthening exercises often cortisone injections and anti-inflammatory medication is used. The OSMO Patch is a great natural alternative to painful cortisone injections and anti-inflammatory medication.

6. Knee Wear & Tear

Knee pain may also be caused by wear & tear in the knee. This will commonly tend to cause irritation and inflammation leading to knee bursitis or a baker’s cyst. For further information and to discover how the OSMO Patch can help relieve swelling and the associated pain due to medically diagnosed wear & tear injuries such as knee bursitis or baker’s cyst simply click on the link below.

7. Knee fractures or broken bones

Fractures and breaks in the knee will usually cause extreme pain. You should consult your health care professional as soon as possible if you are experiencing this type of pain.

(Whilst knee pain is predominantly due to a soft tissue injury you should always consult a medical professional for a proper diagnosis to ensure there is not a more serious injury or underlying cause that may need immediate medical attention.)

Knee problems

Dear Toky,

Some time ago I corresponded with you and was duly sent 10 patches to try for bursitis of the knee. As I am a Carmelite Nun, our life is dedicated to prayer so kneeling is rather important!! I kept off the knee for a long time before trying the patches and found it helped to ease the condition, however, it still felt painful to kneel.

After using the first night, sure enough, there were signs fluid had been drawn off. The second night the same. The area became flat and normal. I have gingerly begun kneeling again with knee pads. However, I have noticed there is now no pain and the knee looks perfectly normal.

This was a couple of weeks ago, and I thought I would give it a good go to make sure before informing you of the patches’ success! So that is good news, and I am delighted.

I would also like to mention that your attitude to your customers is exemplary and obviously sincere. I am very grateful and will certainly recommend them.

Thanks, Every blessing

Bursa on knee

Dear Friends at MediWise,

I had what a nurse practitioner at St. Thomas’ Hospital in London called ‘that huge bursa’ on my right knee as a direct result of falling from the top of a railway staircase when the city was inundated with a snowfall and resulting ice.

I received your patches the day before yesterday, and after two nights am now completely back to normal. I cannot thank you enough. This is one of the BEST investments I have ever made, and I will certainly be happy to recommend it to anyone who is looking for rapid relief from bursitis.

Cheers for now,

Many thanks Toky….

The patches were fab last time and it’s now been over 6 months since I have had to use them.

Alas, it seems my bursitis is back, so hence the need for the wonder patches……

I got a bit careless with kneeling on my knee, so all my fault

Fluid on knee

I had a sac of fluid to the upper-right of my knee. Quite large. I continued to pursue my daily routine which consisted of morning workouts at the gym including ‘spin’ class. Needless to say, I aggravated the whole situation. My leg became swollen, and quite painful. It was only after the swelling went down did I notice the sac.

Upon searching myself for possible causes, I came across your site and since it was a ‘natural’ remedy, I didn’t think it would do any harm. I’ve had good results with other natural products, so why not give it a try.

After three days on the patch, I found that the sac pretty much dissolved. Was I going to heal anyway? Maybe. Was it the combination of natural healing and the stimulation of the patch? Maybe. In any event, I am now sac free.

Hi,

I have used your patches with great success for a bursa that I got when I was thrown from a horse.

I have used it also for my husband’s knee.

Thanks

Bursitis in the knee

Hi,

I ordered these patches for my son who has terrible bursitis in his knee. He owns a carpet installing business, and the constant kicking has really damaged his knee.

He took meds, had a steroid shot, nothing worked. The doctor told him he needed surgery. I had found your patches online, and they have worked for him.

Thanks so much, Sincerely

Bursitis in the hip

I have always been a very active person over the years. A couple of years ago I developed quite a discomfort in my left hip. I attempted to ignore it, but after much deliberation went to see a doctor. After scans it was diagnosed as bursitis. I went for cortisone injections twice, but it really did not ease the pain much.

After coming across the OSMO patch website, not having anything to lose, I immediately ordered 10 of the patches. I placed a patch on the affected hip for a total of three nights. I was absolutely stunned that after the third application, the pain in my hip had disappeared. It was a few weeks before I actually needed to reapply any more patches due to a small amount of pain returning. I assume that the problem will always be there, however, it is very comforting to know that the OSMO patches are available so that you can virtually live pain-free.

Extremely happy that I stumbled on the website.

Knee problems

Dear Danniel,

I fell 1.5 meters landing on my patella. The pain was severe, after 2 weeks on crutches I was left with a fluid-filled bursa the size of half a golf-ball. I already had a swelling just below my kneecap for 5 years, and another specialist had thought this was probably a lipoma.

I’ve used 16 patches so far, in conjunction with acupuncture. The bursa began to shrink from the first patch, and is now almost gone. I’ve been able to return to my Taiji classes. What is more surprising is that the ‘lipoma’ also has almost vanished.

So, no invasive needle drainage for me, no surgery, and I’m recovering fast.

I am very impressed
