The knee joint includes the femur, tibia, fibula &amp; patella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These bones are connected to each other by four main ligaments, which stabilize the joints:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Medial &amp; lateral collateral ligaments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Bones are covered by articular cartilage. Articular cartilage reduces friction between bones and evenly distributes loads during movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between the articulating bones are the menisci (medial meniscus and external meniscus), which act as \"shock absorbers\", absorbing vibrations during movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized has-custom-border\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/drgpanagopoulos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/\u0393\u03cc\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf-\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03bc\u03af\u03b1.jpg\" alt=\"\u0393\u03cc\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf - \u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03bc\u03af\u03b1\" class=\"wp-image-3064\" style=\"border-radius:20px;width:486px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drgpanagopoulos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/\u0393\u03cc\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf-\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03bc\u03af\u03b1.jpg 400w, https:\/\/drgpanagopoulos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/\u0393\u03cc\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf-\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03bc\u03af\u03b1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/drgpanagopoulos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/\u0393\u03cc\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf-\u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03bc\u03af\u03b1-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"\u03c0\u03cc\u03bd\u03bf\u03c2-\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf-\u03b3\u03cc\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf-\u03b1\u03b9\u03c4\u03af\u03b5\u03c2\">Causes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many knee conditions are the result of the normal wear and tear of the articular cartilage.

The patellar tendon and hamstrings are often involved.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chondropathy: It occurs most often in the kneecap and is due to the thinning and wear of the cartilage. Patients with chondropathy experience anterior knee pain that is worse when going up and down stairs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Iliotibial Band Syndrome: Pain on the outer surface of the knee due to inflammation from overuse.
