Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent ailment that causes a lot of pain and disability in older people, and it typically leads to knee replacement surgery. Excessive stress exerted on the knee joint due to incorrect biomechanics of the foot and ankle is perhaps one of the most major contributing causes to KOA.
The stance phase and the swing phase are the two fundamental phases of a typical gait or walking cycle. The stance phase is defined as the time while the foot is in contact with the ground, while the swing phase is defined as the period when the foot is off the ground.
The stresses across the knee are not transferred uniformly during walking, according to a systematic review and meta-analysis published in 2019, with the inner of the knee joint bearing more loads than the outer knee joint in most people. As a result, the system breaks down.
