Exercises in Patellar Tendonitis

Are you experiencing pain just below your kneecap while climbing stairs, jumping, or squatting? You could be dealing with patellar tendonitis, also known as jumper’s knee. It’s a common overuse injury seen in runners, athletes, and gym-goers due to repeated stress on the patellar tendon.

Rehabilitation through physiotherapy exercises is key to recovery. Dr. Deepika Bansal, a trusted and experienced physiotherapist serving Balewadi, Aundh, Wakad, Pimple Saudagar, and nearby areas in Pune, designs structured rehab programs focused on relieving pain and rebuilding strength.

Some effective exercises include:

• Isometric quadriceps holds to activate the thigh muscle without straining the tendon.
• Straight leg raises to maintain strength without knee bending.
• Eccentric squats on a decline board to improve tendon resilience.
• Hamstring and calf stretches to reduce tension around the knee.

With consistent guided therapy, inflammation reduces and mobility returns. If you’re searching for a “physiotherapist near me,” consider Dr. Deepika Bansal for reliable, results-driven physiotherapy that helps you return to pain-free activity.
