A sprained knee doesn’t sound like a severe injury, but it can be if you’ve torn ligaments. And if you continue to act as if you haven’t hurt your knee at all, you can damage your knee more severely. Call the joint specialists at Redefine to receive treatment for any grade knee sprain in northeastern New Jersey. Meet with a doctor who can determine if you’ve sprained your knee so that you can get the treatment you need to get back on your feet.
Despite how strong and stable your knees normally are, you can still sprain them surprisingly easily. As maybe the hardest-working joint in the body, your knees rely on a complex network of ligaments, bones, cartilage, muscles, and tendons. A knee sprain occurs when you stretch or tear one of the ligaments. Moreover, if you suffer a knee sprain, you may have injured another part of the knee as well.
If you enjoy an active lifestyle, be mindful of how your knees twist, turn, and bend. Each knee has four ligaments that keep it stable and bending the correct way. If any of these ligaments are injured, it stresses the others, which you can then injure by overcompensating.
I have gotten a nerve blocker on my left side 36 hours ago and I feel like 50 million dollars right now and I’m sure when I get the right side done I feel like a hundred million dollars, because this is the best I’ve felt in 10 years and I’m only halfway done.

Contact sports cause many knee sprains. You can sprain your knee from a sudden impact, as in a car accident. Knee sprains also result from sudden twisting, stretching the joint too far, or lifting too heavy objects. If your knee is already weak, you can sprain it by doing something simple, such as stepping off a stair or a curb.
If you hurt your knee in New Jersey, get to a joint specialist like the talented doctors at Redefine Healthcare. These pain management specialists can determine which ligament is affected, so you get targeted knee strain treatment.
Each knee ligament can sprain due to a slightly different action:
You usually know right away when you hurt your knee. But while your symptoms reflect the ligament you’ve damaged, there are some common symptoms beyond the knee pain, including:
Symptoms of common knee injuries vary, depending on the specific ligament that you’ve stretched or injured in some other way. We classify knee sprains according to their degree:
While anyone can sprain a knee at any age, the weekend hiker, Thursday night kickball player, and the DIYer around the house are more at risk. Competitive athletes have the highest risk of knee sprains. Knee sprains are the most common injury in U.S. high schools.
More aggressive sports, of course, carry higher risks. Basketball, football, soccer, rugby, wrestling, gymnastics, hockey, or skiing force you to twist and turn, which puts your knees in danger. Golf, yoga, running a 5K, or mountain biking can cause a knee injury. But you can sprain a knee while gardening, walking upstairs, or playing with the children.
To receive treatment for any grade knee sprain, you need medical help at Redefine Healthcare in northern New Jersey. Your pain management specialist examines your knee to check for other, more severe causes, such as patellofemoral pain syndrome or patellar tendonitis, especially if your pain centers around the kneecap.
Once you’re diagnosed with a sprain, expect to spend several weeks following the RICE rule: rest, ice, compression, and elevation, along with some over-the-counter painkillers like ibuprofen. Up to 90 percent of people who’ve suffered Grade I or Grade II sprains make a full recovery after proper treatment and physical therapy. Still, a bad sprain may need two to four weeks to heal fully.
Call today to make an appointment to learn about the newest treatments for a sprained knee. It helps in providingknee ligament pain relief reduces the swelling of the affected area.
If you’ve suffered a grade III knee sprain, where you’ve injured, stretched, or torn multiple ligaments, your New Jersey doctor must determine the most appropriate knee sprain treatment. You may need a camera-guided, minimally invasive, arthroscopic surgical procedure to reconstruct the torn ligament. Surgery is always the last option, however.
No matter how badly you’ve sprained your knee, once your knee pain begins to fade, you’re given a rehabilitation program. Physical therapy strengthens the muscles in and around your knee joint. The stretching and exercises also rebuild your flexibility.
