If you have pain on the inside of your knee, 'this' could be the cause.

Inner Knee Pain? It Might Be Pes Anserine Bursitis!

If you're experiencing pain on the inner side of your knee, it might not just be regular muscle soreness. Particularly, if the pain worsens when climbing stairs or bending your knee, you could be dealing with Pes Anserine Bursitis. In this post, we’ll explore the causes, symptoms, and effective treatments for this condition.

What is Pes Anserine?

The pes anserine refers to the area where three tendons meet on the inside of the knee. These tendons are spread out in a shape resembling a goose’s foot, hence the name "pes anserine."

Each tendon originates from the following muscles and attaches to the inner side of the shinbone:

- Sartorius

- Gracilis

- Semitendinosus

Beneath the pes anserine is a small sac called the bursa, which facilitates smooth tendon movement. However, excessive use or improper posture can inflame this area, causing pain—a condition known as (Pes Anserine Bursitis).

Common Causes of Pes Anserine Bursitis

Pes anserine bursitis can result from the following:

- Overuse from running or hiking

- Bow-legged deformity (O-shaped legs)

- Obesity

- Arthritis

This condition tends to worsen after physical activities or prolonged sitting with poor posture.
