After a car accident, knee pain may not always come directly from structural damage alone.

The nervous system plays a major role in how pain is experienced. After trauma, pain signals can sometimes become amplified, causing discomfort that feels more intense or lasts longer than expected.

This is part of what medical professionals refer to as the neurology of pain.

At AllCare PT, we evaluate knee pain using objective testing, movement analysis, strength testing, and functional assessment to better understand the true source of symptoms.

Understanding how pain works helps patients recover more effectively while also creating stronger No Fault injury documentation.
