Patella Tendinitis - Jumper's Knee

Jumper's Knee (Patella Tendinitis)

Jumper's Knee, or Patella Tendinitis (sometimes known as 'tendonitis'), is a painful overuse injury typified by pain at the front of the knee, under the kneecap

Causes can be extrinsic (e.g. inappropriate footwear, training on hard surfaces and increasing training levels too quickly) or intrinsic (e.g. joint alignment, age and flexibility).

The result is damage to the patella tendon, which can lead to pain and inflammation.
