I hurt my knee in a fall running an ultra 25 weeks ago, i have seen docs in the NHS, had an mri scan and they said nothing wrong with me. Ive even paid top money to see the England football physios, more mris and now desperate for a fix, ive found out more on this video than i have in the last 6 months, hopefully you have more on how to sort this out!

How is your pain now ?

Patellofemoral pain since I my early teenage years! It’s a lot worse now, and it still have my osgood schlatter on my knee as well, I’m in my mid twenties now

I've been through two orthopedic doctors and PT's, and they haven't even come within 1/10th of the level of detail and thoroughness as Paul. The orthos looked at my knee for about a minute, mainly just ruling out meniscus and other major tears (not really trying to actually diagnose me), and the PT's just throw template exercises at me without focusing on a plan tailored for my specific PFPS diagnosis (that hasn't even been established). They just do what most PT's do, stabilization, hit the VMO, hit the hips, not providing any at home regiments... Pain isn't going away. If only Paul was near me.

Hey can you do similar stuff for Left knee lateral compartment and PFJ mild to moderate wear?

my knees are starting to hurt so much from being over worked cause Fredmyer says I'm a "essential worker".....and were under staffed. I'm gonna cry cause for the next three or so weeks I'm only getting 3 days off total. one day after tomorrow, and then my next two days off are after 4 8hour days. I know working for 4 8 hour days isn't much but it builds after a while.

I think this is what I have. My knee clicks when I walk and when I try to massage it I feel like something moves and it hurts a lot. When I sit for too long it hurts I can't wear my heels for too long, I limp and I can't get on my knees the pain is bad. I also can't put my leg back to stretch 😫. The examination you did here is far more than what my physician did. 😒 All he gave me were anti inflammatory and pain killers.

This looks similar to the pain I'm experiencing. I'd like to see a followup video with the prescribed treatment.

Firstly, thank you for this amazing and clinical eval sir, just had a few questions being a physical therapist assistant student. So there will be lateral patellar tracking most prominently with reduced medial patellar mobility?

Yes typically but not always. The first of the quad muscles to shut down is the VMO. Therefore the quad pulls the patella more laterally and the most common area of discomfort is the supra-lateral patella where it contacts the lateral femoral condyle.

@Ortho EVAL Pal With Paul Marquis Sir , 3 months back I got knee pain, doctor said it's PFPS . I took 8 days of ultrasound physiotherapy, recently I took MRI of knee in the report it came as small joint effusion . Still I am unable to fold my right knee completely backward , I will get pain while folding the knee. Daily I am doing knee tightening excercise 2 times. Please tell usually how long will this pain last and can I sit down like before . If it last for a year what will happen ? Please tell sir

Have the same problem due to old acl sprain when i was a kid. I didn’t know it caused a patella tracking problem so 20% of patella cartilage gone. I had no pain so the cartilage was grinding away minutely for over 30 years. Started playing tennis and suddenly pain started like this gentleman described. Seen orthopedic doctor and scans. It turns out that IT band was pulling my knee ever sos slightly causing the tracking problem. Saw PT and turns out i have weak glutes. 6 weeks of intense glute, quad and hamstring exercises made a huge difference. Combined that with foam rolling of IT band.

What exercise should i do with this??

I work with concrete. After Wednesday this week I noticed knee pain in both knees but more in my left knee. Before going to bed, I noticed swelling above my knee cap. When I tried bending my knee all the way, there was definite restistance and discomfort in the swelled area. It is now Friday, I have ice and heat pads on it now. Any idea what I am experiencing? And what treatment I should seek out? And what can I do at home.

I had a ACL LCL repair an my knee is not moveing like it supposed but if I pull it down an use my quard muscles it will move plus side to side I can move it right but not left what could be the problem...

My knee gets very warm when lying down in straight position and it hurts all the time bellow and above the knee cap (mild pulsating pain) . But I can squat under load (185 lbs x10 for few sets) and walk up and down the stairs. One PT diagnosed me with PFPS but I'm not sure since two orthodontist had no idea what's wrong with my knee. X-ray came clean. It started to hurter after a basketball game, also that week I had like 3 games in 7 days. If anyone has any idea I would appreciate your answer.

I think I have this but does it hurt when u like squat or kneel cause for me it does but when I walk or stand it doesn’t

For warmth aren't we supposed to use dorsum of hand for better temperature sensation??

Dr. me too same problem and even my shin bone is hurting me too

Yup I have this, had all the tests and they say do the exercises, which I have and it still isn't sorted. Walking for too long, bending going to the loo as in going up and down the stairs just kills me.

The diagnosis is still most likely Patellofemoral Pain syndrome (PFPS). ~~~ (Still go see your primary care physician) The initial management of PFPS includes 1. activity modification (eg, reduced intensity of exercise) and 2. nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. 3. stretching and strengthening exercises with an emphasis on the quadriceps and hip abductors. Exercises (as per www.webmd.com/pain-management/knee-pain/injury-knee-pain-16/slideshow-knee-exercises) 1) Straight Leg Raises. If your knee's not at its best, start with a simple strengthening exercise for your quadriceps, the muscles in the front of the thigh. ... 2) Hamstring Curls. These are the muscles along the back of your thigh. ... 3) Prone Straight Leg Raises. ... 4) Wall Squats. ... 5) Calf Raises. ... 6) Step-Ups. ... 7) Side Leg Raises. ... 8) Leg Presses.

The only time I get a sharp pain in my knee is when you did the hyper extension when my leg is dead straight I get pain in the front of my kneecap. I have poked the cap, moved it etc and bent it and no pain in other ways - it does also happen a bit on the excerise you did with him standing on one leg and putting pressure on it :( cant go to the doctors at the moment due to lockdown lol!!!

I’ve been struggling with knee pain since I was ten, I’m 28 now and it seems to get worse and worse. I was an avid skier and cheerleader into my late teens. I got diagnosed with patellofemoral syndrome about three years ago. I thought finally my pain will go away! But the physical therapy hasn’t helped and it’s to a point where they get swollen and I have to ice them almost every night. The X-ray I had three years ago showed my patellas were both off center, leaning towards the exterior of my legs. Is there anything else I can do besides manage pain? I can no longer ski, bike, lunge, or even manage a flight of stairs without being in considerable pain

when I had it many years ago I found this helpful: strengthen VMO (the lower part of your inner quad), stretch out hamstrings (but only when the muscle is already warmed up), also stretch out butt muscles and calves, and finally, when walking, try to remain very upright with like a 'book on your head' posture, keeping abdominal muscles and butt muscles activated while walking. I found that really helped me a lot. I haven't had that problem since

I sense pain in the inner side (medial side) of the leg of my left leg patella. It's only when my muscles are tightened (generally while walking). Its only while the angle made by the leg is tipically 10-20 degrees... Can I get some info of such case.. please?

What was that bit you touched something Bursa? That’s where mine is killing me right now!

I consistently work out my quad muscles with no relief, I just started foam rolling the IT and vastus lateralis. My ortho told me to work on VMO strength so I’ve also been trying to activate that with my warmups. I still have pain and really want to get back into running- how long until my symptoms start to go away(,:

I’ve been dealing with this for a long time. Be prepared to give up high impact (running, jumping) for at least 6 weeks. I’m at the point where I can’t even do quad exercises at all because the pain is that bad. The key lies in most likely your hips, ankles can play a part too. There are 4 things I do daily that are helping immensely: 1: slow backwards walking on an incline treadmill (10 mins) 2: lying leg abductions for glute medius 3: banded clamshells for glute medius/tfl 4: whatever quad loading you can handle, for me it’s straight leg isometric holds and straight leg raises

How are you feeling now

Hi doctor kindly reply, diagnosed with pfs in left knee for past three years, xray shows patella is little above to the knee, doctors have given nsaid and vitamin d3 tablets, nothing works so much. Whenever the sleep is less the pain in knees is more and the pain is more while bending. Exercises doesn't help much. Now another doc has advised me to take glucosamine tablet. Can you recommend on how to proceed further....... Thanks.

There are so many causes of pain in that area that it wouldn't be fair to give advice on something I haven't evaluated. Have you been to an orthopedic surgeon to look at it?

Could be many reasons for this Ben. Because it's both sides, I would have to consider something systemic which bloodwork could help to rule out. Have you seen a PT yet to help you with this?

I am 37 and this yr learned I have this. Im a very athletic person and it was a bit of a blow especially bc I like to weight train. Is it still possible to do weighted lunges, squats bulgarian split squats?

@@arthurdayne5146 I actually decided to go the Eastern Medicine route and tried Accupuncture..whether it was mind over matter, but it helped tremendously and I noticed immediate relief..something that multiple sessions of physical therapy didn't do. I'm much better now and use knee sleeves which seems to help. I still get the feeling on occasion but I went from a 6,7 discomfort to barely a 2 nowadays...so I only hope now, it stays that way.

I have been diagnosed with Chondromalacia Patella Grade 2- PF pain on the medial side. I have been give a physio routine. Can people recover from such athletic injuries? OR do you have to reduce athletic activity forever or go for surgeries? Appreciate the video. Thanks!
