Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) and Runners: What do I need to know to feel better?
In this episode I cover Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome, What it is and how you treat it. Typically caused by tightness on the outside of the leg, a high sitting knee cap or weakness In the quadriceps or glutes, it does respond well to conservative treatment and generally only takes 1-3 sessions of PT if unable to manage in the first 7-10 days on your own. You can check out episodes 82 and 83 of the Mesh Tongue on YouTube for more info and some self help strengthening and taping. Also if you have specific questions, feel free to reach out by email brian@company5k.com. As always thanks for listening and hope to have you back again soon.
