Do you feel pain just above your kneecap while climbing stairs, squatting, or running? Does the front of your knee feel stiff in the morning or after sitting? Searching for a βphysiotherapist near meβ because the discomfort isnβt improving? These signs may indicate Quadriceps Tendinopathy, a condition caused by overuse or repetitive strain on the tendon connecting the thigh muscle to the kneecap.
What Is Quadriceps Tendinopathy?
It occurs when the quadriceps tendon becomes irritated or degenerative due to overload, poor biomechanics, weak supporting muscles, or sudden changes in activity.
How Physiotherapy Helps
Physio focuses on improving tendon health and knee function through:
β’ Eccentric and isometric strengthening
β’ Stretching tight quadriceps and hip flexors
β’ Patellar mobilisation to improve movement
β’ Ultrasound or laser for pain and healing
β’ Correcting foot-knee-hip alignment
What You Can Try at Home
Apply ice after activity, avoid deep squats temporarily, start gentle quads stretches, and strengthen glutes to reduce knee load.
For dedicated care, Dr. Deepika Bansal β Physiotherapist in Balewadi, Wakad, Aundh, Pimple Saudagar offers personalised treatment plans to restore knee strength, stability, and pain-free mobility.
