FREE KNEE PAIN CHECKER
Knee pain, made clearer.
Where does your knee hurt? Tap the area that best matches your pain and answer a few quick questions to understand some common possible causes and what to do next.
This checker provides general information only and does not diagnose knee conditions. Seek urgent medical care if you have severe injury, major swelling, a hot red joint, fever, inability to bear weight, or other concerning symptoms.
Understanding knee pain location
Knee pain location can sometimes help a clinician understand the structures that may be involved. Pain on the inside of knee, pain on the outside of knee, pain behind knee, pain below kneecap and pain around kneecap can each have several possible explanations.
When an online checker is not enough
Seek medical assessment for significant injury, recurrent swelling, true locking, giving way, increasing limitation or symptoms that are not improving. This knee pain checker cannot examine your joint or diagnose the cause.
