Studies have shown that a significant number of individuals without knee pain actually have signs of arthritis on their MRIs. The presence of arthritis on a scan does not predict future problems or pain levels. While there is a relationship between arthritis severity and pain, it is not linear, and many people with arthritis have no pain at all. Strength training and comprehensive rehabilitation programs can help reduce knee pain and improve function, even in the presence of arthritis.
