ANTERIOR KNEE PAIN: CAUSES AND TREATMENTS
Anterior knee pain is a term used to describe pain around the kneecap or in front of the knee.
Also known as ‘runner’s knee’ or ‘jumper’s knee’, it often affects athletes and those involved in running, basketball and other sports.
However, patellofemoral syndrome can also affect non-athletes and is commonly seen in adolescents, young adults, and older adults.
Anterior knee pain is the most common cause of knee pain in the general population. It can be caused by overuse of the knee joint, physical trauma or spinal misalignment.
CAUZE
Patellofemoral syndrome happens when the back of the knee comes into contact with the thigh bone. The exact reason why this happens is not completely understood, but is related to:
Knee overuse: activities that involve running or jumping put repetitive strain on the knee joint, which can lead to pain in the kneecap.
Muscle imbalance: when certain muscles, such as those around the hips and knees, are weak, they fail to keep adjacent body parts, including the knees, properly aligned. Eventually, this can lead to injury.
Trauma: Injuries to the knee or knee surgery can increase the risk of patellofemoral pain syndrome.
SIMPTOME
The most obvious symptom of patellofemoral syndrome is persistent, static pain in front of the knee.
When a person has patellafemoral syndrome, knee pain may worsen when doing any of the following movements:
kneeling
curl up
going up or down stairs
long-term state
Other symptoms may include:
slight swelling
feeling locked when bending or extending the leg
reduced thigh muscle strength if the initial symptoms are left untreated

We have excellent experience with patients with anterior knee pain. Most people experience this problem at least once in their lives. For this reason, we have researched the most effective way of treatment and our multi-disciplinary approach techniques have worked best with patients.
We apply the combined treatment methods of osteopathy, manual therapy, physiotherapy and physiotherapy. We have great success with this treatment, and the treatment time has been significantly reduced compared to classical physical therapy techniques. The treatment protocol should include these important goals: decreasing inflammation, increasing circulation, removing pain, regaining pain-free activities. The treatment plan should be personalized according to these goals.
