How to Treat Your Runner’s Knee
The best care for runner’s knee is a physical therapy treatment plan that takes into consideration your level of injury and pain, your overall fitness and health, and your age. If you’ve had this condition in the past, that will also play a role in your runner’s knee treatment.
No matter what condition you’re in, your initial treatment will center around rest and giving your knee time to heal. This might even involve runner’s knee taping to help with immobilization and give support to your knee while you navigate your daily living activities. During the rest and recovery portion of care, you can expect some or all of the following:
- Cold packs
- Elevating your leg
- Compression knee wrap
- Knee braces
- Over-the-counter medications to manage inflammation
- A review of your shoes
- A look at your natural gait
- Time off your feet
When the pain is more manageable, you’ll move onto some runner’s knee exercises that will help strengthen the knee and surrounding areas. Learning to rely on the surrounding muscles may play a big role in your recovery and learning to avoid future knee injuries.
Included with runners knee exercises are runners knee stretches. These two techniques work hand-in-hand giving you added flexibility, strength, and increasing your range of motion very slowly. Your physical therapist will work with you to create a customized program that gets you back to the level of fitness you want to be at. The treatment plan will be specific to you and will be flexible enough to change as you progress or if anything proves to be excessive and slowing progress. It’s not a quick fix but our trained team is here to help you recover and enjoy your favorite activities again.
