Medial knee pain may result from causes such as muscle strain, trauma, ligament injury, or meniscal tear. Patients are advised to promptly consult an orthopedic specialist for evaluation and undergo X-ray imaging to determine the underlying cause; targeted treatment can then be initiated accordingly. In daily life, patients should avoid strenuous physical activity and weight-bearing ambulation. Local application of a warm towel (heat therapy) may help improve local blood circulation and alleviate pain symptoms.
