How do you treat infrapatellar fat pad syndrome?

Mostly a bruise: http://www.sw.org/misc/health/Hoffa%27s%20Disease%20%28Infrapatellar%20Fat%20Pad%20Syndrome%29%20with%20Rehab-SportsMed.html This varies a lot, but often it is like a localized bruise that doesn't last long and goes away with rest on its own. Seeing an orthopedist is one option. We can give referrals with a directed (paid) question.
