Jumper’s Knee: Resting (Fix Patellar Tendon Pain)

Sometimes a tendon needs rest. Sometimes a tendon needs load. A painful tendon can be reactive. A painful tendon can be degenerative. For a reactive tendon, rest will usually get people back to no pain and good function. For a degenerative tendon, wise loading will usually get people back to no pain and good function. “Revisiting the continuum model of tendon pathology: what is its merit in clinical practice and research?” study here: https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/50/19/1187 “Is tendon pathology a continuum?
