I can’t kneel or squat anymore — what’s wrong and should I do an MRI?

Uncategorized | 2025 Oct

Q1: Why can’t I kneel or squat anymore?
Loss of knee mobility can be due to meniscus tears, ligament injuries, cartilage damage, or early arthritis. Even small injuries can cause pain and instability.

Q2: I’ve tried physiotherapy — should I still do MRI?
Yes. Short therapy trials that fail indicate the root cause hasn’t been addressed. MRI identifies the underlying problem before it worsens.

Q3: What are the risks of delaying MRI?
Ignoring persistent pain may lead to chronic inflammation, worsening cartilage wear, or permanent joint damage.

Q4: Are X-rays enough?
No. X-rays show bones but cannot detect soft tissue injuries. MRI gives a clear, radiation-free view of ligaments, cartilage, and tendons.

Q5: Fast, affordable MRI option?
The Pain Relief Clinic provides MRI scans under $1,000, insurance and Medisave claimable, within 1 working day, and non-surgical treatment options to help you recover safely.
