You recently had surgery, endured pain, swelling, tightness
and discomfort in your knee. You have pushed yourself through months of rehab
and all with thoughts in your head about when you can step back on the field.
As your mind comes back to reality, you refocus to your surgeon saying, “your
good to go if you have no questions for me.” Well this is your chance to speak
up. I am telling you from experience I have seen to many athletes returned too
soon, without proper guidance and readiness. Three things happen to these
athletes:
1. They
continue to play, but are never the same
2. They
injure their opposite knee within a year
3. They
reinjure their same knee
What is Runner’s Knee?
Runner’s knee – a broad term used to describe pain in the
front and around the kneecap – is arguably the most common injury among
runners. Typically this is a repetitive strain injury and can refer to several
different diagnoses, most commonly patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) and
iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS).
What causes Runner’s Knee?
·
Kneecap is too high
·
Weakness in quadriceps and hip muscles
·
Tightness in hamstrings, ITB and hip
muscles
·
Poor foot support or flat feet
·
Excessive training or overuse
Runner’s Knee Treatment Options
Runner’s knee can be a very frustrating injury for runners to
manage, especially when it impacts training for your next marathon.
Medical Treatment Options:
·
Running gait analysis: If running is
the main activity that caused knee pain, having your gait pattern
professionally analyzed using high speed camera’s can pinpoint any
biomechanical stresses that may be contributing to knee pain.
·
Orthotic’s: Collapsed arches or
overpronation can create stress at the knee joint, therefore using orthotic’s
can control motion at the foot and stress at the knee.
