patellafemoral/jumpers knee condition

[ad]

i myself suffer immensley from this condition

 

it is caused by intense jumping activity from such sports as basketball

 

this condition affects my patella. this condition prevents me from bending my knee 100%, at the moment i can only bend both knees about 60%, i have been through series of treatments yet there hasnt been a solution yet,

 

i would like to know whether any of you at this forum suffer from this condition and if so your experiences with it

There comes a time with a chronic condition when an evaluation is overdue. How much are you doing and what is it doing to you in return. And then the cost - the physical cost now and in the long run.

 

Then the activities need to be adjusted. Maybe less jumping or a new activity.

this condition didnt come after a particular incident in a sport, its sort of just came on and my knee is been like this for the past 2-3 years

 

i have been told that to stregthen the patella in place i need to build the muscle in the quadriceps yet i feel it just another waste of time like all the other possible treatments

 

next week i will be given a carcinogenic injection to smooth out the under surface of the patella
