A member asked:
What specific exercises would help bursitis of the suprapatellar?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bursitis, tendonosis: Quadraceps tendonosis and other tendon/muscle disorders of the anterior knee and thigh tend to respond well to stretching and closed chain exercise programs. With a suprapatella bursitis there can be fluid in the bursa which sometimes requires aspiration or more rarely surgery. Consultation with your physician will most likely result in a reasonable treatment plan.
