A member asked:

Hi, i have got patellar tendonitis but i am now suffering with the same type of pain in my right hand, could this be connected?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: not directly. Generally it's a question of your conditioning level, your technique/equipment compared to what activities your are subjecting your body to.
