Can dry needling help Patellar Tendinitis?
Yes! Dry needling in Portland can help you get back to your normal activities!
Patellar tendinitis is a common overuse injury caused by repeated stress on your patellar tendon. This results in tiny tears in your patellar tendon - or knee cap. This can cause pain from inflammation and weakening of the area.
Pain is usually the first symptom of this condition, mostly between your kneecap and shinbone. In severe cases, this pain can interfere with your daily movements, such as climbing stairs or getting up from a chair.
Dry needling can help patellar tendinitis by relaxing the muscles surrounding the tendons.
