Knee tendonitis
(2 discussions)
Hello, I have had knee pain or tendonitis for about 5 years. I have tried dozens of different treatments as well as several different braces. The tedon straps don’t seem to do anything and because I am still playing a high level of competitive sport, I don’t want to wear a big brace on my leg. Is the short sleeve a viable option, or am I wasting my money???

Have you been playing comeptitive sports for the past 5 years?? If so, it's no wonder you still have tendonitis. Braces will not cure tendonitis. Rest and other types of modalities such as those a PT can give you or maybe even some sort of steriod shot. If a long leg brace didn't work then certainly a short leg brace won't work either. Sounds like you want a quick fix and I'm sorry to say there is none.
