@turtlepress i have pains around my knee cap and it hurts when Bending down or doing any leg work ! i play rugby and lift weights ! could i use this technique on my knee without the tape breaking whilst playing sport ?

Thanks in Advance

@MadStylezuk Not sure whether it will help but you can definitely make the tape job strong enough to stay in place during activity. Many basketball players use this technique successfully during games/practice.

so does jumpers knee go away or is the pain forever? Cause ive had it for months now.

[turtlepress]

@1ofmeNlotsofU It will go away if you treat it.

If your knee is hairy in any way ... dont forget to shave. I had to find out the painful way ... shave the knee where the tape will go. :(

THIS SHIT DOESNT WORK.

[jorisrrr]

just buy a knee strap, and try to take it easy until the pain goes away

All you smart ass people who think you know what your talking about can just shut the hell up. Its really annoying to see your long ass messages on this about a video... please :)

how to treat it ??? by using knee strap

[pcorde02]

@1ofmeNlotsofU what you have sounds like tendonosis or a breakdown (lysis) of the backside of the tendon. You can tell this by pressing on the front of the tendon with the leg straight and then pressing on the tendon with the knee bent. If you have less pain with the knee bent it is because the tendon is not in contact with the bone behind it. See your orthopedic for an evaluation because at this point ice, rest and anti-inflams are not going to make a difference.

Hi!

I think I'm currently suffering from jumpers knee, I have like a swelling 2 inches below the knee. It feels like it is right on the bone. Any suggestion what it can be? I'm feeling a huge pain while moving, jumping so on. I haven't hit it into anything, (at least so far I can remember). Have any suggestion to treat/cure it? I'm grateful for a quick reply!

@haidino06 this doesnt improve recovery, its just a pain reliever when playing sports
