Common symptoms include:
- Pain increases when you are active, but gets a little better with rest.
- Swelling and warmth in the knee joint.
- Stiffness, specifically in the morning or when you have been sitting for a long duration.
- Limited mobility within the knee, making it difficult to climb stairs and get in and out of chairs or cars.
- Creaking, crackly sound is typically heard when knee moves.

Custom Orthotics Designed for Chronic Knee Pain/Osteoarthritis:
- Full length posting - may be necessary if you are walking in an abducted 'duck' stance position or coming off the inside of the greater toe, causing torsion affects up the leg - to the knee.
- This will also indirectly correct the alignment of the knee in hopes to prevent a mal-tracking patella.
- Heel padding - to reduce the effect of impact forces at the heel bone and up the leg.
- Customized arch support - dissipates pressure throughout the foot and knee.
- Neutral casting - to align your feet and lower limbs in order to place them in the most optimal position for gait.
