WHAT IS KNEE PATELLA PAIN?

Patellofemoral pain is the medical term used when pain occurs at the front of the knee, around the patella (kneecap), without signs of any damage or other problems in the knee joint. It is also called patellofemoral pain syndrome or patellofemoral syndrome.

Patellofemoral pain can be the result of irritation of the soft tissues around the front part of the knee. The Strained tendons are very common in athletes. Other contributing factors to patella pain include overuse, muscle imbalance and inadequate stretching. Pain that begins in another part of the body, such as the back or hip, may cause pain in the knee (referred pain).

In some people with runner's knee, the kneecap is out of alignment. If so, vigorous activities can cause excessive stress and wear on the cartilage of the kneecap. This can lead to softening and breakdown of the cartilage on the patella (chondromalacia patella) and cause pain in the underlying bone and irritation of the joint lining.

WHAT CAUSES PATELLA PAIN?

It may be due to a combination of variety of factors which put extra strain on the knee joint and on the surrounding muscles and ligaments.

·         This may be due to overuse of the knee, for example in certain sports - particularly at times of increased training.

·         People may have a problem in the alignment of the knee. This may cause the patella to rub on, rather than glide over, the lower femur.

·         Combination of an alignment problem and overuse with sports, may be the most common reason for getting patellofemoral pain.

·         Foot problems can also play a part - for example, where the feet do not have strong arches (flat feet). This makes the foot roll inwards (pronate), which means the knee has to compensate for the inward movement. Also, shoes where the soles are hard rather than soft put more strain on the knee.

·         Injury to the knee - including repeated small injuries or stresses due to sports, or due to slack ligaments (hypermobile joints).

·         Reduced muscle strength in the leg can contribute, as the leg muscles will be less able to absorb stresses on the knee.

  OUR RELIEF SOLOUTION - KNEE PATELLA BRACE:

·       The Patella brace wraps comfortably around the knee, just below the patella and fits over the patellar tendon to give pain relieving compression for patellar tendonitis and to increase surface contact area in the joint.

·    This brace provides compression on the patellar tendon, helping spread pressure uniformly across the patellar tendon, reducing discomfort and irritation.  

·         The brace also provides compression which may also help stabilize your patella, improving its tracking.

·         Absorbs stress to the knee, reducing vibrations in the femoral groove.

·         Easy to apply and effective in treating knee pain.

·         Fully adjustable strap which fits the most knee.
