What is the cause of knee pain?

Our knees are among the most commonly used and abused joints in our bodies. We rely on our knees to help us walk, run, bend, sit and stand. The knee joint is also the largest joint in the human body and as a result, and so it can be among the most painful when afflicted with arthritis.
