Simon_T | Knee Pain !!! | 07-10-2010 @ 13:47 | |
wales Member 1058, 5361 posts SQ 220, BP 140, DL 294654.0 kgs @ 106kgs UnEq | In the last two days i've started having a shooting pain at the top of my knee going down the front of my patella, it only happens when i'm stepping up (stairs or ladder) and at the lowering stage of deads and powerclean. Has anyone else had/got this and how did you train around it and help it get better? | ||

sumo ?? no ! no ! Member 1399, 557 posts | Post Edited: 07.10.2010 @ 15:34 PM by ranathari Sounds like patella tendinitis/tendinosis, see your GP and be very forceful in demanding a referral to sports physiotherapy or orthopaedics.My particular case was caused by excessively tight hip flexors, which was shifting the stress onto my knees. Resting them for a few weeks then doing rehab stuff emphasising the eccentric plus a lot of soft tissue work to improve my hip flexibility was the route to a cure. | ||

left the country satisfied Member 10, 19241 posts SQ 240, BP 150, DL 270660.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq | yeah i had that just last week. Its gone now. tendonitis was what Mike said it would be too. I got a shooting stabbing pain in one angle only, perhaps just few degrees from straight. plenty of ibu, regular icing, rest, elevation and avoiding stuff that hurt it seemed to do the trick. I stopped squatting now for a week, but deadlifts were fine. Power jerks were hurting but split jerks were fine (pain is on left knee which is the back leg) Also i warmed up a bit more than normal, and used muscle heats. | ||

Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22056 posts | I'd train around it and do nothing that aggravates it. If lowering dead lifts and power cleans are aggravating it, set up something so you can drop them! Mats? Grass? Find an alternative technique for ascending stairs too. Backwards? Keep the bad leg straight? | ||
