If knee pain is stopping you doing the things you enjoy, get in touch to find out whether there may be other options available.

Most people with knee arthritis don't need a knee replacement.
I often see people who have gradually stopped walking hills, golfing or exercising because of persistent knee pain.
The good news? There are often more treatment options than people realise.

Not every treatment that's commonly prescribed is strongly supported by evidence.

Research suggests that medications such as diazepam, gabapentin, pregabalin, and paracetamol often provide less benefit for back pain than many people expect.

That's not the same as saying medication never has a role. For some people, the right analgesia at the right time can help them stay active and engage with recovery.

But prescriptions alone rarely address the whole problem.

The strongest evidence continues to support staying active, exercise, education, and helping people understand their pain.

As a doctor, I'd rather help you understand and manage your back pain than simply add another prescription.

What's been the most useful advice you've ever received for back pain?
