Knee Pain – Jumper’s Knee USMLE

So the patella in the knee joint can handle the force during jumping rather well, but other structures in the knee joint cannot.

Osgood Slaughter’s disease can cause inflammation in the tibial to voracity, and the patellar tendinitis causes inflammation in the patellar tendon.
