A member asked:
Are there any times of the year when knee injuries are more common?

Not sure: Depending on what part of the country (north or south - longer or shorter warm periods for outside sports), there may be seasonal peaks but i would await an orthopedist for an answer as they specifically deal with the injuries.

No.: Knee injuries are common year round. in the winter, many ski related injuries involve the knee, and so do falls on ice and snow. In summer, people are more active, thus, leading to more knee injuries.
