Researchers want to understand how the alignment of your knee bones (whether they curve inward or outward) affects pain and your willingness to move. This study will look at X-rays you've already had and ask you questions about your pain, daily activities, quality of life, and any fear you might feel about moving your knee. The goal is to see if there's a connection between bone alignment and how much these symptoms bother you.
Knee osteoarthritis causes pain and can make people afraid to move, which makes things worse. Doctors know that when knee bones aren't aligned properly, it can speed up damage and increase pain—but no one has fully studied how alignment, pain, and fear of movement all relate to each other. This research aims to fill that gap.

You will visit the clinic once for an outpatient appointment. During your visit, you'll complete several short questionnaires about your pain, how well your knee works, your quality of life, and any fear you feel about moving. The researchers will also review your recent knee X-ray and measure the alignment of your knee bones. The whole process is observational—no medications, exercises, or procedures—just questions and measurements based on X-rays you've already had.
