What is housemaid's knee?

The common, chronic knee ailment called housemaid’s knee is also known as chondromalacia patella or prepatellar bursitis. The ailment itself is an inflammation of the bursa overlying the patella, which can be extremely painful. Housemaid's knee is so named because the condition was once believed to be caused by leaning too much on the knee, a major occupational hazard of housemaids. The knee condition doesn't just afflict housemaids however, as anyone whose work may necessitate kneeling for long periods of time, such as carpet layers and gardeners can be affected. Although Housemaid's knee is attributed to a particular activity, namely frequent kneeling; it can come on quite suddenly with very little trauma to the knee.

What are the symptoms of housemaid’s knee?

The symptoms of housemaid’s knee are generally a vague discomfort and swelling of the inner knee area. Some patients with housemaid’s knee may also have a vague sense of "tightness" or "fullness" in the knee area. Occasionally with housemaid’s knee, if chronic symptoms are ignored, the associated loss of quadriceps (thigh) muscle strength may cause the leg to "give out."

What are the causes of housemaid’s knee?

A direct blow or a fall on the knee can cause Housemaid's knee, as this ruptures blood vessels causing swelling in the bursa. Inflammation in the knee soon follows. Prepatellar bursitis can also be triggered by an infection from a surface injury, such as a skin wound over the kneecap. The infection can then be introduced, spreading into the fluid and contributing to painful swelling and inflammation. Others may develop housemaid knee due to a genetic predisposition for the condition. Housemaid's knee may considered to be chronic if it recurs over a certain period of time. The knee can be further aggravated from consistent repeated damage, which can make the kneecap walls thickens irritating the bursa causing irritation. This can be mitigated via the use of kneepads.
