Many people believe that knee pain only affects older adults. The truth is, young people can also experience knee pain, and it is becoming increasingly common.

Why do young people still have knee pain?

• Prolonged sitting – lack of physical activity: Sitting for long periods while working or studying reduces knee movement, weakens the muscles around the joint, and increases pressure on the knee when standing up or walking.
• Improper exercise techniques: Running, playing football, or going to the gym without proper warm-up, overtraining, or using incorrect posture can lead to damage to the articular cartilage and ligaments around the knee.
• Overweight and obesity: The knee joint bears the body’s full weight. Every extra kilogram increases the load on the knee, causing pain to develop faster and accelerating early joint degeneration.

WHEN SHOULD YOU SEE A DOCTOR FOR KNEE PAIN?

• Knee pain lasting more than 1–2 weeks

• Pain that worsens when walking, climbing stairs, or squatting

• Stiffness, swelling, or cracking/grinding sensations in the knee during movement

• Recurrent pain that affects daily activities

Early medical evaluation helps identify the cause and allows timely treatment, preventing further joint damage.

Alsavin is an HA-containing product that helps replenish synovial fluid in the knee joint, supporting early pain relief and improved mobility with just one intra-articular injection.
