Knee pain due to tendonitis
Often knee pain also occurs due to inflammation of the tendon in the knee. Inflammation of the tendon is often caused by overstraining or incorrect loading in the knee joint, which is why athletes are often affected. Symptoms are mainly newly occurring pain after movement, redness and knee swelling.
If the tendon inflammation is chronic, the pain can also occur at rest or at night. To make a diagnosis, a detailed consultation with a doctor, a physical examination, various movement tests and a magnetic resonance tomography of the knee joint are necessary. Those affected should take it easy, take anti-inflammatory medication and cool the knee. Physiotherapy can also relieve the symptoms. and tendon inflammation in the hollow of the knee
