Jumper’s knee, or patellar tendonopathy, occurs when the patellar tendon receives micro-tears and collagen degeneration as a result from excessive strain on the knee joint. This condition is common in athletes who engage in sports that involve changes in direction and jumping movements.
Symptoms of jumper’s knee may include pain at the front and bottom of the patella (kneecap) upon compression, aching and stiffness, pain when contracting the quadriceps, and enlargement in the tendon region.
For noninvasive treatment at home, we offer a large variety of products that may help alleviate pain and swelling. Browse our selection of knee braces, stabilizers and supports, natural pain gels, massagers, cold and heat packs, and magnetic therapy.
