  Physical examination is the first step in diagnosing any knee injury. The following tests may follow: • X-rays: Help in finding out broken bones if any • MRI scan: Help in finding out the exact issues with the tendons • Ultrasound: To get the exact image of the knee structure • Arthroscopy: This could be needed to get into detail diagnosis when the MRI’s do not reveal the exact issues. Mostly, cases involve diagnosis by using more than the mentioned methods as each one is used for different purposes and hence produces different results. For few patients blood tests could also be required to know more about the overall health condition before starting with treatment and prescribing medications. Advanced diagnosis is helpful to cure knee pain. Consult 𝐃𝐫 . 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐀𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐭 “ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐋𝐢𝐦𝐛 𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐜 ” for advanced diagnosis and knee pain relieving treatments.
