If your knee puts you in agonising pain, I understand how frustrating and hurtful it must be.
After nearly half a decade of working with knee injury patients, I’ve found that many golfers get knee pain when playing.
The quicker you get the treatment and make some changes to the way you play, the better your chances for improving and playing golf at the same or better level.
How Are Golf and knee pain related?
If you’re playing golf regularly and you start feeling pain in your knee, the chances are that your pain comes from playing golf and possibly the wrong technique you’ve been using.
You might have developed some playing habits over time that are not good for your body and can put more pressure on your knees.
Knee pain from golf can happen if you twist your body while swinging the golf club in a way that affects your knee. Or you might have been keeping the wrong posture when playing.
Whatever the reason is, there are things you can do to help your knee pain from golf and avoid it in the future.
What Are The Symptoms of Golf-Related Knee Pain Problems?
The symptoms of golf-related knee pain problems can vary from one person to another.
You might be experiencing pain in your kneecap or throughout the whole knee as your tissue is damaged.
Most likely you will get a burning feeling in your knee and it may even swell as it’s been overused while playing golf.
All of that means that you can’t play golf anymore, which comes with a lot of emotional cost as sometimes golf is the main thing that you love doing with your friends, so when that’s taken away from you, it’s very upsetting.
You need to get the help that you need to recover and be able to get back to the game and enjoy your life.
How Can You treat Knee Pain From Golf without Painkillers or Surgery?
You might have tried some home remedies like putting an ice pack on your swollen or painful knee.
Maybe you’ve taken medication and tried to rest as this is the most common advice you’d get from doctors.
However, a knee injury from golf won’t just go away after you’ve taken pills.
If you’re suffering from knee pain caused by playing golf, then you need to work on the mechanics of how you play to avoid repeating the same mistakes and getting another injury.
As your knee pain may be foot-related, you should also make sure you are wearing the best shoes for golf. The best option is to get customised orthotics that can take some pressure off your foot and knee and help you avoid injuries.
The best thing you can do is to get help from an expert like me who can assess your situation and provide a customized treatment plan to get your knee back to health and get you back to playing without injuries.
