Q1: Why does my knee lock?
Locking often results from meniscus tears, loose cartilage, or ligament injury that cannot be confirmed without MRI.

Q2: Therapy hasn’t helped — should I do MRI?
Yes. MRI identifies structural damage, enabling targeted treatment and preventing chronic issues.

Q3: Risks of delaying MRI?
Untreated injuries may worsen, causing chronic pain, instability, and early osteoarthritis.

Q4: Why MRI over X-ray or CT?
MRI provides detailed imaging of soft tissues, whereas X-ray shows bones only and CT is less effective for ligaments and cartilage.

Q5: Fast MRI option?
The Pain Relief Clinic provides MRI scans under $1,000, insurance and Medisave claimable, within 1 working day, along with non-surgical treatment options.
