Physiotherapy for Anterior Knee Pain

Physiotherapy for Anterior Knee Pain

Anterior knee pain, often experienced around or behind the kneecap, is a common complaint among runners, athletes, office workers, and teenagers. It is usually caused by patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), overuse, muscle imbalance, poor knee alignment, or tight structures pulling the kneecap abnormally.

Patients may complain of pain while climbing stairs, squatting, prolonged sitting, or running.

Under the expert care of Dr. Deepika Bansal, physiotherapy treatment at our centers in Balewadi, Wakad, Aundh, and Pimple Saudagar focuses on:

πŸ”Ή Pain relief: Using ice packs, ultrasound, or IFT/TENS to manage inflammation and reduce discomfort
πŸ”Ή Stretching: Tight muscles such as the iliotibial band, hamstrings, and quadriceps are gently stretched to restore balance
πŸ”Ή Strengthening: Emphasis on VMO (Vastus Medialis Oblique) and gluteal muscles to stabilize the knee joint
πŸ”Ή Patellar taping: May be used temporarily to correct kneecap tracking
πŸ”Ή Biomechanical correction: Footwear advice, posture correction, and gait training are key to preventing recurrence
πŸ”Ή Activity modification: Guided return to sports or physical activity with proper technique

Timely physiotherapy can prevent chronic pain and improve daily function. Book a session with Dr. Deepika Bansal for personalized care and faster recovery from anterior knee pain.
