The causes that lead to the irritation of the soft tissues and the inner lining of the knee cap, wearing and tearing of the cartilage, and strained tendons are:
Overuse and stress to the knee cap or the patella.
Trauma to the knee cap.
Complete and partial dislocation and misalignment of the kneecap due to any injury or accidents.
Weak thigh muscles.
Flat legs.
Arthritis.
Fractured knee cap.
Improper working or exercising posture.
Not stretching properly before any strenuous task or exercise.
Plica and synovial plica syndrome lead to thickened and inflamed inner lining of the knee joint.
Age: with growing age, bone density decreases, and more wearing and tearing of the cartilage takes place.
Gender: women are more affected than men.
The common and most widely seen symptoms for runner’s knee are:
Knee pain and pain around the area.
The pain can spread to the entire leg, pelvic, and back.
Pain while doing any activities and movements like walking, stretching, bending, kneeling, squatting, running, climbing stairs, and sitting in a constant position for a longer period.
Swelling of the knee.
Popping and grinding sound from the movement of the knee.
Sensitive to touch.
Redness and cruising.
Difficulty in sleeping in a particular position for a longer period.
Certain factors can increase the chances of acquiring the condition of the runner’s knee. Following the risk factors:
Age: runner’s knee is most likely seen in teens and adults. Knee pain in the older population is generally caused due to arthritis.
Gender: women are twice as likely as men to acquire the condition. The common reason behind it is the sture and wideness of the pelvic region in women, which affects the resting of the knee joint.
Lifestyle: persons involved in high-impact knee tasks, sports, physical activities, etc., are more likely to get the condition.
Involvement in certain sports: Participating in running or jumping sports can put extra strain on the knees, especially at higher levels of exercise.
Maintaining bone strength: Strong quadriceps and hip abduction muscles help to keep the knees balanced during activity, but deep squats should be avoided during strength training.
Alignments techniques and postures: patients should consult their doctor or physiotherapist about flexibility and strength exercises to improve their jumping, running, and pivoting techniques. These help the patella to be in a good structure during running. It is especially important to train the outer hip muscles so that the knee does not buckle inward when crouching, landing from a jump, or stepping down.
Losing extra pounds: If a patient is overweight, losing weight will reduce the strain on the knees.
Warm-ups: Warm up with a light exercise for about 5 minutes before running or any other exercise should be done.
Stretch: Gentle stretch before heavy exercises increase mobility.
Gradually increasing the intensity: the patient should avoid sudden changes in workout intensity.

Resolve360 is great platform for online physiotherapy.
I was suffering from scapula dyskinesia and had lot of pain in right shoulder movement. I was introduced to Resolve 360 by my oncologist.
Within a month (26 sessions) there was a considerable improvement. Sessions are very cost-effective and doctors are very kind and efficient.
Doctor David has been really great and helpful. I would highly recommend Resolve 360.
I took prenatal care program from Resolve 360. Dr. Preyrna was assigned to me and she has done commendable job. I did prenatal exercises under her supervision, she designed program according to my body need. With her help my pregnancy was healthy and I got good dilations at the time of delivery. I am blessed with a healthy baby girl and very happy with Resolve 360.
Best therapy sessions that too at home and timings are very flexible. I had a issue in my neck and lower back since almost 4 to 5 years, taken so many treatments and physio sessions. But all gave a temporary relief. Then my friend referred me this Resolve 360 in 2020, in starting i was hesitant as everything was online, but after taking almost 10 sessions i got much relief, and now i am almost free of pain. Thanks to the team of Resolve 360.
I had online Physiotherpy sessions by Prerana for my heel pain. ( Tendo Achilis Sprain).
Though virtual, it was more interactive.
She was very observant throughout the sessions, correcting me while doing the exercises and was assertive in her outlook.
I found her instructions and methodology very helpful. She is updated in her academic knowledge in the field of Physiotherpy. She clarified my doubts about the role of Laser and Ultrasound treatment quoting evidence based data. With my personal experience I agree with her opinion that these are more of placebo effect.
Physiotherpy though not a miracle treatment, is a compelling necessity to most of the musculoskeletal and neurological illnesses. It needs to be accepted as healthy way to live.
From being a couch potato with poor cardio respiratory system to reaching pre-athlete levels of fitness in a span of 3 months, my journey with Resolve360 and Dr.David (Physiotherapist) has been anything but magical!
About 3 to 4 months ago, my blood report showed very high bad cholesterol levels, I was low on stamina and had frequent breathing issues. My GP prescribed me cholesterol meds for a month but I felt that alone wouldn’t get me back in shape because I needed a major lifestyle overhaul.
Dr.David educated me about my condition in detail and where it could lead me to if I don’t take action in the long run. He put me on a balanced workout regime being easy with cardio workouts in the initial days and gradually upgraded it observing me closely. He also advises me on dietary choices and follows up frequently. During the initial days, my ears used to get blocked within 5 wall squats and I stop right away but now I do over 20 in one shot and hardly feel a thing. I used to lose balance and fall off over my face within 6 push-ups or 20 seconds of plank and now I do about 24 push-ups in one shot. My heart rate used to raise above 150 bpm doing jumping jacks or other cardio workout within 20-30 seconds. You won’t believe I don’t do any of these cardio workouts without additional weights on my feet these days and my heart rate and recovery are as steady as they could get. I couldn’t run for over 2 min without stopping and gasping and now I cover about 4.6 km in 30 min and follow-up with a 20 min walk. Not convinced yet? My VO2 Max (I use an Apple Watch to measure this stat) was just about 33 while I started with Resolve360 and David. That reflects a very poor cardio respiratory fitness for a 34 year old. It’s 43.5 today ! Easily above average. Please read upon about VO2 Max and how it directly relates to cardio respiratory fitness so you get an accurate picture about my monumental progress in the last 3 months. I’ve been trying to get into a regular physical workout and balanced diet discipline since my 20s but I’d never been so motivated as I’m now. Give these guys a try. After all, the best investment you could ever make is on your health !
