Abstract
Patellar tendonitis is a common exercise-related knee disease, which is a sterile inflammation that occurs on the ligament tendons of the patella, also known as patellar terminal disease, often due to long-term exercise or sudden strenuous activity caused by injury to the patellar ligament tendon to form an acute/chronic inflammatory response, mainly affecting athletes, runners and people who need frequent knee flexion. The occurrence of patellar tendinitis is closely related to damage, inflammation, and pain of the patellar tendon around the patella, mainly with knee pain, swelling, and limited joint mobility. Its clinical symptoms are knee pain, swelling, and movement disorders, which seriously affect the patient's daily life and motor performance. The rehabilitation treatment of patellar tendinitis mainly includes physical therapy, exercise, drug intervention and surgical treatment. These methods can be combined with each other and can achieve good rehabilitation results. However, the individualization of rehabilitation treatment is equally important and requires the joint efforts of medical staff and patients.
