Jumper's knee is a general description to cover a number of knee problems. Athletes develop knee pain usually in the lower patella and describe it as jumper’s knee. It is an overused name for a disease. Careful examination will disclose a number specific conditions such as bursitis, meniscal injuries or Chondromalacia (1) or other Runner2.gif (2102 bytes) causes of the patellofemoral pain syndrome. The best way to accurately diagnose jumper’s knee is by using ultrasonography. The pain usually occurs after physical activities. The diagnosis of jumper's knee is usually easily established by a doctor after a detailed history and performed by physical examination, The complaint can be locally identified and a specific diagnosis can be made. As mentioned, the problem is usually occurring at the lower pole of the patella. but the lesion can be mistaken for other disorders The time and cost to properly diagnosis the condition is normally not worth it. The injury requires rest and the hurt will usually cause the participant to rests his knee. Conservative therapy is the most after treatment in the early stages and includes adequate warm-up, stretching of the quadriceps muscle. Physical activity is limited because of the pain, and ice pack application after activity. After the pain ceases physical activity can begin. NSAID (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) and local peritendinous injections with long-acting steroids can be a helpful.

Goode Wraps are simple to use, just slip one on for chondromalacia and jumper's knee pain
With a little care, one Goode Wrap can last for years

"Thanks for a great product. I ordered the knee wrap last time (1997) as I had hurt my knee while using a machine at the gym. My knee was so sore it was difficult to walk much less walk up steps. After using the knee wrap, it did not take long before all of the pain was gone. I was amazed. The pain has not returned. I have since ordered these for my Mom (1998) for her wrist and for a friend for her ankle. They were both pleased. Now once again we have returned (2002) and my son is using the wrap for ankle pain. Thanks again!"chrondromalacia,chondromalacia Patella, anteriorknee pain,jumpers knee, jumper's knee hurts, tendonitis, knee tendon pain, chrondral defects, orthosis, arthralgia, femoral

PATELLAR TENDINITIS (JUMPER'S KNEE)

One of the big differences between the effects of patellar tendinitis (that is, tendinitis of the patella--the kneecap), and chondromalacia is that tendinitis sufferers are much better able to locate the pain. Whereas people with chondromalacia may rub their fingers up, down, and around the knee to indicate where it hurts, when you have tendinitis you can put a fingertip right on the spot. It's so tiny and specific that you can put the tip of a ballpoint pen right on the spot and just about levitate yourself into the air with pain. And that spot is right at the bottom of the kneecap, where the tendon that goes on to connect to the shinbone begins--hence the name, patellar tendinitis. It's also called jumper's knee, as it was first described in the takeoff leg of high jumpers. But it turns out that basketball players probably have more jumper's knee than anybody else. You also see it in dancers, runners (and it's very hard to deal with in runners, for some reason), volleyball players--anyone who runs and jumps regularly may suffer from it. And, like chondromalacia, it sneaks up on you, first hurting after your activity, then toward the end of the activity, then during, at the beginning, and finally all the time. It's not nearly as common as chondromalacia-nothing is--but it's more difficult to deal with. It's probably the second most frequent knee injury.

"Well, I have been using my knee wrap for several days now and I definitely feel better. Less stiffness and pain after sitting for long periods. I wear it to sleep and during the day if possible. I expect to wear it to sleep until my knee feels just like my other knee. I would definitely endorse this product."

Bob Willmot, Engineer and Investment Banker

"As you’ve probably already seen I’m recovering from reconstruction of both knees. Needless to say my tendons have been a bit annoyed by having their middle third cut out. I’ve found a great product that has eliminated my pain. They do have University Research reports on-line, but being an engineer I figured I’d do my own research. I used the wrap on my right knee and left my left knee as the control group. I’ve been doing this for a little over a week and my right knee feels dramatically better (no more stiffness in the morning, or pain when I sit for long periods). The result of my extensive research: I’m going to get another wrap for my other knee."

Pain Study

Excerpts from Pain Study being prepared for publication by a large Western University

METHODOLOGY

A group of 32 injury victims were selected from two locations. One a pain clinic where the injuries ranged from sports trauma, chondromalacia, jumper's knee to falls, and two "old injuries acting up." The other location was an athletic training center at a large Western University during basketball, volleyball, and track seasons. The injuries involved were strains, sprains, and trauma from falls, etc. There were no broken bones or deep cuts.

The subjects were randomly assigned to two groups, red or blue. All subjects were required to sign a consent form in order to join the study, however, neither the subject nor the trainer/nurse/physician knew whether red or blue was experimental or control. Each subject was asked—and agreed—not to ingest any type of analgesic or other pain medication nor obtain any other methods of treatment for their injury while participating in this study.

Results - the perceived levels of pain were calculated by subtracting the perceived level at each reporting time from the original perception:

Thirty minutes - all control group subjects felt worse or no change. 31% of the treatment groups felt somewhat better. Significance of .024.

Two hours - control group subjects continued to feel worse or the same. 56% of treatment group felt significant improvement. Significance is .003.

24 hours - 25% of control had some improvement. 63% of treatment group had significant improvement.

Three days - 30% of control group had slight improvement. 88% of treatment group had moderate to great improvement.

Seven days - 33% of control group subjects had again slight improvement. 91% of treatment group subjects had great to total improvement. Significance is .004.

Time to Abandon the "Tendinitis" Myth

By K M Khan, assistant professor.
Department of Family Practice, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Z3

Tendinitis such as that of the Achilles, lateral elbow, and rotator cuff tendons is a common presentation to family practitioners and various medical specialists.

Most currently practicing general practitioners were taught, and many still believe, that patients who present with overuse tendinitis have a largely inflammatory condition and will benefit from anti-inflammatory medication.

Unfortunately this dogma is deeply entrenched.

Ten of 11 readily available sports medicine texts specifically recommend non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for treating painful conditions like Achilles and patellar tendinitis despite the lack of a biological rationale or clinical evidence for this approach.

Instead of adhering to the myths above, physicians should acknowledge that painful overuse tendon conditions have a non-inflammatory cause.

A critical review of the role of various anti-inflammatory medications in soft tissue conditions found limited evidence of short term pain relief and no evidence of their effectiveness in providing even medium term clinical resolution of clearly diagnosed tendon disorders.

Laboratory studies have not shown a therapeutic role for these medications. Steroid injections provide mixed results in relieving the pain of tendon problems.

If general practitioners, orthopedic surgeons, and other members of the healthcare professions treating tendon disorders made a quantum shift from previous flawed teaching about overuse tendinitis and adopted these data there would be immediate ramifications.

Philosophy and Application

DR. MERCOLA'S COMMENT:

Using anti-inflammatory medication for these tendon problems is a prescription for disaster as they clearly do not treat the underlying cause and have the potential to cause significant complications.

Put simply, the philosophy is that the body is a self regulating bioenergetic and biomechanical phenomena which will continue to regulate itself for as long as it has the reserve energy necessary to sustain life, by the ongoing process of biological adaptation.

Bowen realized that the body would regulate itself and return to balance if the appropriate neurological and neuromuscular context was created so that it could. There was never the question of if it could, this was implicit -- the fact that the person had life was evidence enough that it could!
