Talking Tendons 4: Case study of Patellar Tendinopathy with Caz

Another podcast first. I talk to Caz who has agreed to be our first case study. Suffering with patella tendinopathy for 5 months now, we discuss her initial symptoms and how management spun out of control. We talk about the highs and lows of her journey, discussing recent flare-ups amongst the small wins and her battle to run the Melbourne Marathon this year.

In this episode you will learn:

• Common characteristics and behaviour of patella tendinopathy
• Real-world presentation of the downward spiral
• Why sometimes you shouldn't listen to doctors
• Tests you can perform to determine your tendon capacity
• Initial steps to control tendon irritability
• Why you need to be careful implementing speed
• The raw emotions and frustrations with chronic tendinopathy.
