Episode 22 - Patella Tendinopathy - Ask the expert

Welcome back to the LBSM podcast.

In this new Ask the Expert episode, we’re joined by Dr. Lewis Raiman, one of our specialist Sports and Exercise Medicine doctors, to take a deep dive into patella tendinopathy – sometimes called “jumper’s knee.”

Dr. Raiman explains what this condition is, why it often affects athletes and active individuals, and how it differs from other causes of anterior knee pain. We discuss the key features of diagnosis, the role of imaging, and the latest evidence-based treatment options; from rehabilitation strategies and load management to shockwave therapy and injections. Whether you’re a recreational runner, a competitive athlete, or a clinician wanting to learn more, this episode will give you a clear understanding of patella tendinopathy and how to manage it effectively.

If you need any further advice on this topic or have a topic you want discussed on the podcast, please get in contact!
