Poor posture can indeed cause knee pain. When the spine and pelvis are misaligned due to poor posture, it can lead to compensatory movements and increased stress on the knee joints. This misalignment forces the knees to work harder to support the body’s weight and maintain balance, which can result in knee pain.
Poor posture can also lead to excessive joint reaction forces throughout the body, including the knees, contributing to knee pain. Therefore, addressing and improving posture can be crucial in treating and preventing knee pain.
