Article Synopsis
- Patellar tendinopathy is a common type of knee pain in athletes, especially those involved in jumping and running sports, caused by repetitive microtrauma and poor healing at the knee joint.
- Eccentric exercises can help, but recovery may be slow; thus, there's increasing interest in treatments like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, which have shown effective results with minimal side effects.
- While PRP therapy displays potential for long-lasting improvement, variations in treatment protocols highlight the necessity for further research to standardize its application, and stem cell therapy also shows promise but lacks sufficient data for widespread recommendation.
