Updated: Aug 2
What is Jumper's #Knee?
A condition that causes pain in the band of tissue that connects the kneecap to the shin bone. Commonly seen in children and also occurs in young #sports #athletes that require repetitive #jumping, #running, #walking or #cycling.
What are the common symptoms?
- Pain just below or above your# kneecap
- Pain when ascending staircase
- Pain when trying to get up from a #squat
How does this happen?
These activities put repeated stress on the kneecap tendon and cause it to get inflamed.
How can #Physio help?
- Relief of pain and swelling at the acute(early) stage
- Strengthen necessary #muscles to reduce risk of re-occurrence
-Educate to manage and training you to get back to sports/daily activity
