Select all that applyIdentify true statements about the condition known as jumper's knee.Multiple select question.It occurs in the patellar or quadriceps tendon as a result of either a single acute injury or, more commonly, repetitive injuries.Treatment is usually conservative and involves complete elimination of stressful activities for approximately 6 months to 1 year.A tenodesis strap may be worn to put direct pressure on the patellar tendon and may help mitigate pain.It is indicated by increasing pain during rest that subsides on return to running or jumping activities.

Which of the following is a sign of jumper's knee or patellar tendinosis?Multiple choice question.Swelling, hemorrhage, and gradual degeneration at the tibial tubercleVague pain and tenderness, generally around the bottom of the patella on the posterior aspect, that worsens when jumping or runningPain when the patella is compressed within the femoral groove while the knee is passively flexed and extendedRecurrent swelling around the patella and a grating sensation when flexing and extending the knee
