[Singapore, July 2025] —
SGDoctor.com has compiled a list of treatment options for patients suffering from knee pain — one of the most common and disabling musculoskeletal complaints affecting adults in Singapore and around the world.
Many patients experience knee pain due to causes like osteoarthritis, meniscal injuries, ligament strains, patellofemoral syndrome, and overuse injuries. Left untreated, these issues may lead to reduced mobility, chronic discomfort, and impaired daily function.
Common Treatment Options for Knee Pain
Patients in Singapore typically consider a combination of the following options:
Oral Medication: While anti-inflammatory drugs may reduce pain temporarily, many patients are concerned about long-term use due to potential side effects such as gastric irritation or dependency.
Physiotherapy: Widely available and often helpful, though some patients find the progress slower than desired, especially if sessions are spaced weeks apart due to availability.
Joint Injections: Options like hyaluronic acid or steroid injections are commonly offered but may need repeated sessions. Some patients worry about the cumulative cost and possible discomfort.
Surgery: Procedures like arthroscopy or knee replacement are offered for advanced cases. However, many patients prefer non-surgical options due to cost, downtime, and fear of complications.
Traditional & Complementary Treatments: Some patients try acupuncture, TCM, chiropractic care, or massage therapy — with varying results. While often safe, results can differ depending on the provider, and patients sometimes continue to experience pain after trying these options.
