10 Causes of Knee Pain
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Cause #2: Bursitis
Bursitis is a condition caused by inflammation that occurs when someone overuses their joints. In the knees, there are small fluid-filled sacs known as bursae which help minimize friction and provide cushioning for movement and pressure.
Unfortunately, when these small sacs become inflamed, a person can lose some of their range of motion. It can be uncomfortable or painful to move the knees.
