Started about 3 months ago
Some progress, received diagnosis from MRI
No other complications
Keen cyclist
Played football at wedding
Knee pain day after wedding in PT up and downstairs
Rested a week seemed okay
Went back to cycling did some test rides without any real issues
Walked a bit delivering leaflets
Since then pains and swelling, leg collapsing while walking
Went to doc, referred for MRI diagnosis is Patellar Tendonitis/Tendonosis
 |
| White section below patella is the damage |
"There is spindle-shaped thickening of the proximal to mid third of the patellar tendon, with maximum AP thickness of 9 mm. There is associated high signal seen within the intact patellar tendon. High signal noted in the Hoffa's fat pad."
"Normal quadriceps insertion and popliteus tendon insertion. Intact cruciate and collateral ligaments. No meniscal tear. Normal patellofemoral and femorotibial articular cartilage. No bone contusion. No loose bodies. No joint effusion. No Baker's cyst."
The Radiologists report is fairly conclusive.
