What are some basic overlooked causes for knee issues?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Footwear: Overlooked knee issues can sometime start with improper footwear for the wrong sport or improper fitting shoes. Sometimes the best looking footwear may not be the best for an individual.

Many possible causes: Most likely it is due to overuse, but it could be due to a lot of different reasons. Knee pain can be due to gout, infection, or due to tendon, cartilage, or bone abnormalities. Have it evaluated by a professional and get the appropriate treatment.
