What to do if i have pain below the kneecap; the trainer said something about tendonitis; could the quad injury have had anything to do with that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Patellar tendonitis: Pain below the kneecap is most likely patellar tendonitis. Treatment for the tendonitis might include change of activities, anti-inflammatory medication, physical therapy, counter force brace, and icing after activities Discuss further with your trainer.
