Patella tendinopathy, also known as jumper's knee, is a condition that causes pain and inflammation in the tendon that connects the patella (kneecap) to the tibia (shinbone). Here are some treatment options for patella tendinopathy:

1. Rest: Avoid activities that cause pain in the affected knee, as continued stress on the tendon can make the condition worse.

2. Ice and heat therapy: Applying ice to the affected area can help to reduce pain and inflammation, while heat therapy can help to loosen up the surrounding muscles and increase blood flow to the area.

3. Physiotherapy: A physiotherapist can provide exercises and stretches to help strengthen the quadriceps and improve flexibility in the knee. Quadricep focussed eccentric exercises, in which the muscle contracts while lengthening, have been found to be particularly effective for patella tendinopathy.

4. Taping or bracing: Taping or wearing a brace around the knee can help to reduce stress on the tendon and provide support during activities.

5. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) or Focussed shockwave therapy (FSWT): This is a non-invasive procedure that uses high energy shockwaves to stimulate healing in the affected area.

6. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections: In more severe cases that do not respond to conservative treatment, a small amount of the patient's blood is spun in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, which are then injected into the affected area to promote healing.
