Patellar Tendonitis

Patellar Tendonitis
Patellar tendonitis occurs when the patella tendon is overstressed, which can happen when jumping or landing heavily.

The condition is often called jumper's knee.

Patella is the medical term for the kneecap, and the patella tendon connects the kneecap to the shinbone.

Tendons are made up of strong tissue and join muscles to bones.

If a person applies extra stress to a tendon, tiny tears can develop in the tissue. This causes inflammation, but the injury often heals quickly. However, repeated strains may cause tears to develop faster than the body can mend them.

Patellar tendonitis develops gradually. The condition becomes more severe each time the tendon is overstressed, so it is essential to rest the knee after each injury. This will give the body time to heal.
