Frequently Asked Questions about Knee Pain
Do you evaluate the foot and hip for knee pain?
Yes. Movement above and below the knee may be relevant, so those areas are assessed when appropriate.
Do I need an MRI first?
Not always. Dr. Day will determine whether imaging may be useful based on your history and examination.
Can I keep exercising?
That depends on the condition and symptom behavior. Dr. Day can recommend appropriate activity modifications after evaluation.
