of Knee Injuries and Iliotibial Band Syndrome!
Knee pain and knee injuries, as a result of Iliotibial Band Syndrome, can be an extremely painful and frustrating injury that puts a big strain on both the knee and hip joints. Knee injuries are very common among runners and cyclists. However, they doesn't usually occur in an instant, like a hamstring strain or groin pull, but commonly starts off as a twinge or niggle, and progress quickly to a debilitating sports injury that can sideline the best of us for weeks. For those who aren't familiar with Iliotibial Band Syndrome, let's start by having a look at the muscle responsible for the problem. The iliotibial band is actually a thick tendon-like portion of another muscle called the tensor fasciae latae. This band passes down the outside of the thigh and inserts just below the knee. The diagram to the right shows the anterior (front) view of the right thigh muscles. If you look towards the top left of the diagram, you'll see the tensor fasciae latae muscle. Follow the tendon of this muscle down and you'll see that it runs all the way to the knee. This thick band of tendon is the iliotibial band. Or iliotibial tract, as it is labelled in the diagram.

Background: Patellofemoral joint complaints are one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints in all age groups. Complaints vary from anterior knee pain to peripatellar knee pain to retropatellar knee pain. Nonspecific complaints may include global or generalized knee pain, joint line pain, or posterior knee pain. Often, there is a paucity of objective findings despite subjective complaints. The problem may vary from one of short duration to one of a recurrent or chronic nature. The etiology of patellofemoral joint syndrome is multifactorial. Treatment often is conservative in nature. Because of the variable nature of the complaints and often lack of objective identifiable pathologic cause of patellofemoral joint complaints, it can be difficult to evaluate, diagnose, and treat this condition, which may cause great frustration for the physician and patient alike. Frequency:
  • In the US: Patellofemoral joint syndrome may affect as many as 25% of all athletes.

Charles R.Felder, PT, SCS, ATC
Maureen A. Leeson, B.App.Sc.(Phty) Introduction Patellofemoral pain is a common ailment affecting one in four of the general population(6). It is caused by a variety of factors including abnormal lower limb mechanics, Vastus Medialis Obliquus (VMO) insufficiency, tight lateral structures and tight anterior and posterior muscles. The condition often develops gradually and is characterized by a diffuse ache in the area of the anterior knee. Pain is a significant factor since it will inhibit muscular activity and alter lower limb function. Anterior knee pain is often diagnosed as chondromalacia patella(2). This diagnosis is only correct when a softened and fissured patellar under-surface is seen during diagnostic imaging or surgery(2). Often, no cartilaginous pathological findings are present in patients who otherwise complain of severe knee pain and functional disability, especially during prolonged sitting, stair climbing or sporting activities. The VMO muscle is the dynamic medial stabilizer of the patella. Therefore it is important to understand the anatomy and function of the VMO when treating patients with patellofemoral dysfunction. The fibers of the VMO insert into the patella at an angle of 50-55 degrees from the vertical axis(10)(see figure 1). The VMO is active throughout the full range of extension of the knee and is the only dynamic medial stabilizer of the patella(4). Insufficiency of the VMO will contribute to lateral tracking of the patella(3). Training the VMO is important to prevent lateral tracking of the patella and eliminate patellofemoral dysfunction.

Knee Pain Occurrence and Prevention
Part 2: Chronic Knee Pain
By Anne C. Terry, RN, MSN, ARNP
This is the second in a three-part series on knees. Knee injuries can happen to any active outdoor enthusiasts, particularly those who participate in high force activities such as skiing, snowboarding and jumping sports, climbing, and sports involving lateral or sprinting movements such as soccer, rugby, football, basketball and lacrosse. In December, Annie Terry, RN, MSN, ARNP discussed acute (sudden onset) knee pain including ligament strains, meniscal tears and patellar dislocations (see Part 1 www.bodyresults.com/E2KneePain1.asp ). This month she takes a closer look at chronic knee pain associated with overuse. February we will feature a series of sport-specific free weights leg exercises and stretches that will help you recover from and prevent future recurrence of knee pain.
Chronic Knee Pain
  • Illiotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS) Osteoarthritis Patellar malalignment Patellar Tendonitis Patellofemoral Syndrome Popliteal Cysts Prepatellar bursitis
Iliotibial Band Syndrome
Patients (particularly runners) that experience chronic pain on the outside of the knee may encounter a condition known as illiotibial band syndrome (ITBS). In this condition, patients feel a burning and/or aching pain over the exterior surface of the knee. This pain often radiates up towards the outside of the thigh. Management is conservative, involving rest, stretching, and as needed, use of NSAIDs for pain. Additional treatment strategies include replacing worn shoes, using orthotics, and avoiding exercise on uneven terrain. (3,4)

Differential Diagnosis of Conditions Causing Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome
AUTHOR: Anna Sokolowska
This literature review was written as part of the undergraduate course at Curtin University of Western Australia.

1.0 Introduction.
The following paper aims at outlining the most common causes of anterior knee pain of which are commonly grouped into the category of Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome. Due to the enormity of the topic at hand acute injury related to trauma will be omitted. The purpose of the literature review is to briefly outline current concepts in the understanding of conditions, and the discussion will highlight details with respect to differential diagnosis. It is assumed that the reader has previous knowledge of knee biomechanics, as these will be briefly intimated in the formulation of etiological factors. A major limitation of this paper is the lack of inclusion of treatment strategy, largely due to the brevity of the paper in relation to size of the topic. Back to index.

http://www.humed.com/humc_ency/ency/article/001259.htm
Disease Injury Nutrition Poison ... Prevention Anterior knee pain Alternative names: Knee pain - runner's condition; Patellofemoral stress syndrome Definition: Knee pain caused by misalignment of the patello-femoral joint (where the kneecap articulates with the end of the thigh bone). Considerations: Orthopedists commonly see people with anterior knee pain, or pain in the front of the knee.This condition is common in young women, especially active women. Physical examination of the knee may show valgus alignment of the knees (knock-kneed).The inside of the patella (knee cap) may be tender and the patella may be able to be moved sideways away from the midline more than 50% of the width of the patella (an abnormal finding).
Tests that may be performed include:
  • A joint X-ray of the knee which may show the patella tilted to the side where it articulates with the end of the femur (thigh bone).
  • An MRI scan of the knee can demonstrate any tears in the soft tissue around the patella or injury to the menisci, ligaments, or cartilage.
Causes: Anterior knee pain is most commonly seen in people with valgus knees (knock-knees) and in those with weak muscles around the patella.These conditions often occur together and result in an abnormal tracking between the patella and the end of the femur, which can be painful.

    There are many knee operations that can be performed using an arthroscope. Most operations can be done as a day-case procedure although many patients require a period of muscle strengthening afterwards to obtain the best outcome. Below is an outline of the commonest "knee syndromes" and the arthroscopic procedures used to treat them.
    1: Locked Knee A torn meniscus can displace into the knee joint causing a mechanical block to extension and resulting in pain and muscle spasm. The classic type of meniscal tear producing a locked knee is the "Bucket Handle" tear. The torn meniscus remains attached front and back allowing the central torn portion to flip into the knee joint like the handle of a bucket. As the pain and spasm reduce the displaced meniscus can drop back allowing the knee to move freely again. This mechanical "locking" of the knee can be an intermittent feature with symptomless periods of in-between episodes.
    2: Medial Pain Syndrome
    The gradual onset of pain aggravated by twisting, squatting and catching your toe; as well as pain at night when you sleep on the side with legs together. This is typical of a cleavage tear of the medial (inner) meniscus which can intermittently be "pinched" by the knee joint as it flexes or twists suddenly. In-between episodes the torn portion of meniscus can fold away under the untorn meniscus and the knee become pain free.

    Exercises: A.Control of pain and inflammation
    • Application of ice bags or ice cups three to four times per day for ten to twenty minutes. Modalities such as high volt electrical stimulation and ultrasound/ice massage contrast may be of benefit in this phase of rehabilitation on a limited basis For patients with patellar tendonitis : deep transverse friction massage should be performed over the tender aspect of the patellar tendon for ten minutes one time per day.  The patient should glide the patella distally toward the foot.  The massage should be directed perpendicular to the patellar tendon using the thumb.  The massage will serve to reduce the unorganized alignment of collagen fibers and break up scar tissue during the healing process.  This will allow equal stress across the patellar tendon during muscle contraction and will help achieve normal length and strength of the patellar tendon. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications as prescribed by their physician.

    Patients suffering ligament injuries to the knee
  • Sudden pain and swelling after a sharp twisting movement should be suspected as an extensive injury with bleeding in the joint (haemarthrosis).
    Up to 70% of patients presenting with an acute haemarthrosis have an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, which is often associated with other injuries in the knee joint.
    A cruciate ligament tear can be diagnosed clinically. The Lachman test is the most sensitive clinical test to evaluate excessive anterior laxity of the knee joint (ACL injury) and can detect a total rupture in 80-95% of cases.
    A patient with acute haemarthrosis and positive Lachman test should be referred to a specialist immediately (within 1-2 weeks of the injury) for diagnosis and advice regarding treatment alternatives. Associated injuries that hinder an early rehabilitation should be treated acutely.

South African Journal of Physiotherapy 59(1): 10 - 19 Chronic pain sufferers are frequently misunderstood and stigmatised. The aim of this investigation was to provide a description of the life-world of people with chronic low back pain, using the phenomenological method. Themes which emerged were that the persistent nature of chronic pain makes it particularly difficult to endure, arousing a profound fear of the future. Chronic pain causes a disruption in the relationship between the person and the body. The person is forced to function within the constraints of pain and to find ways of coping. Sufferers are unable to fulfil social roles as expected and are forced to revise their goals and activities to accommodate the pain. The distress of their experience is mediated by the ability to make sense of their condition, finding meaning in the pain itself. This study highlights the value of the phenomenological method in health psychology. Recommendations are made which may be of benefit to people with chronic pain and their families. The multidimensional nature of chronic pain is highlighted and implications for various professionals who work with chronic pain patients are discussed.
