    Olaf van Buul over de Runners Knee:
    "Oorzaak = overbelasting
    Remedie = sterker maken van spieren en pezen rondom de knie HOE? 1. Veel rekken van het bovenbeen (quadriceps) 2. Als een 'klein kind' op een tafel gaan zitten en je benen heen en weer zwaaien. Ca. 10 minuten perdag. Hierdoor laat je alles in de knie werken, zonder de mechanische belasting die je bij het lopen hebt. 3. Ga in langzit op de grond zitten met een opgerolde handdoek onder de knie. Probeer je onderbeenvanuit je kniegewricht omhoog te krijgen (lukt maar maximaal 1 cm of zo, geen nood). 4. Loop vooral niet te lang achter elkaar. Ik ben middenafstander en bij mij was het zo dat duurlopen absoluut niet gingen (na 10 minuten last), maar als ik korte tempo's liep (400 meters) ging het wel." Om het risico op een runners knee te verkleinen:"Een tip is wellicht regelmatig van schoeisel te verwisselen: loop niet elke training op het zelfde model. De idee is dat je dan de je knie gevarieerder belast. "

    Runner's knee rehabilitation
    It is sometimes said that even horses know not to run on pavement. Well, horses may know that, but us humans don't. In cities throughout the world, runners take to the streets, pounding the pavement. And all the while, the knees are taking quite a pounding themselves. While serious injuries, fractures, major tears of cartilage and ligaments, need quick medical care, sometimes knee pain can be relieved, or lessened, with good home treatments. bodyOffer(27464) When do knee injuries occur? In many cases, the injuries occur over time, by the constant pounding on the hard pavement. The repetitive movement creates stress on the knee joint, and eventually the pain develops. Note that serious injuries usually happen suddenly. When a football player cringes in pain on the field, he has done something like snapped a ligament so the immediate pain is excruciating. This is different than the gradual, dull ache that can develop on the knees of a runner. Do certain surfaces cause pain in the knee? Think soft, soft and soft. No, not sand, but cushioned tracks are superior to the hard pavement of streets and sidewalks.

    Runners Knee
    Back to injury list
    Definition: Pain all around and under the kneecap, and stiffness of the knee joint. In severe cases, flexing the knee may produce a painful grinding sensation. Runner's knee results from running too much or too hard, too soon. Remedies: Poke around the knee. If you find a sore spot,ice it; if you don't, ice won't help. Take anti-inflammatories (see "Three Basics"). If the knee swells, ice it and see a sports-oriented physician. Swelling indicates a major problem, and it may take three to four months for the knee to heal.
    Runner's knee can occur when hamstrings are tight, when quadriceps are much stronger than hamstrings or, in the case of new runners, when quads are weak. All runners should stretch and strengthen quads and hamstrings regularly.
    If you can run through this injury, avoid downhills; flat running and uphills are easier. Wear shoes with adequate sole padding and good motion-control properties. Consider wearing a rubber sleeve with a hole that fits over the kneecap.

    Running Injuries
    There are many common injury presentations for runners. Achilles Tendonotis, Patellar tendonitis, Shin splints, Plantar Fasciitis, Hamstring injuries Quadriceps, Iliotibial tract External rotators and Back injuries are just a few. Many of these injuries are preventable given the correct stretching and muscle balancing exercises. Often there is dysfunction in the joints around the hips and back which prevent the huge forces developed whilst running from being dissipated throughout the body. Poor ability of some joints to rotate will mean compensating elswhere. Usually on a short run this may not cause a problem, however when stepping up to the longer races such as the marathon, breakdown will occurr at the weakest point.
    Correct trainers for your body weight and size are essential, remember most trainers lose 50% of their shock absorption capabilities within the first 50 miles. For a good runner's website where many issue regarding stretching and running are reviewe d visit

    Runners Knee. Mange kender det man vil gerne løbe alligevel, men det før "fandens" ondt på ydersiden af knæet. Et område på størrelse med en 10 kr. Det kommer og går, holder man det varmt, kan man løbe lidt længere, men det giver en stikkende smerte langt ind i knæet ! De faktorer der gør at man er disponibel for denne skade: - man overpronerer foden (løber indad) - sadlen er for højt indstillet - manglende stødabsorbering i skoene - musklen på ydersiden af hoften er svag Rettelse: Få evt. indlagt en sål (special). Man kan også afhjælpe ved at få indlagt en svangstøtte, for at undgå overproneringen. Saddelhøjden skal helst passe så man mindst kan nå med sin hæl. Vær sikker på at din løbesko modvirker den "negative" belastning du er udsat for. Jeg kan her varmt anbefale Saucony. Lav nogle "Funny jumps" specialøvelser for at styrke musklerne omkring hofteleddet. De er meget effektive - ofte glemte øvelser. Til sidst er kun at sige, sæt belastningen ned til 70 % af max. Lyt til din krop.

    Sports News, Sports Features, Books HaLife Sports It's called runners knee, but soccer and basketball players and cyclists get it Whether you refer to it as chondromalacia patella, anterior knee syndrome, or runner's knee, anyone whose foot rolls inward when playing or walking can get it. It's not age-related, and the treatment is the same for everyone from the kids to grandpa. It starts with the kneecap, which is supposed to ride smoothly up and down as you walk, run, or cycle. More often, your foot rolls in as you move from heel to toe, and the kneecap scrapes the cartilage on one side. The cartilage weeps in protest, and the joint hurts from no particular injury. It's worse going up and down stairs, and the knee feels stiff after you sit awhile. What can you do? Athroscopic surgery doesn't help much, and most other fixes are only temporary. Proper orthotics are the most important step. They prevent the roll that causes the scraping. Soon the patella cartilage that has been injured can start to regenerate itself. Orthotics alone won't do it, however. The muscle in the front of your thigh that's supposed to hold the kneecap in the center has to be strengthened.

    Tennis Elbow Osteoporosis Plantar Fascitis ... Shoulder Injuries This Month - Patellofemoral Syndrom or "Runners Knee D isabilities involving the knee and more specifically the patella (knee cap) are common in all age groups. Many causes can be blamed on these problems including direct trauma such as falls and auto accidents, biomechanical deficiencies, and training errors in runners. Over time these problems can lead to a wearing of the cartilage which covers the underside of the patella, leading to osteoarthritis characterized by joint noises and pain. Activities such as stair climbing, stooping, and kneeling can often aggravate these symptoms.
    Depending on the cause of the problem and the severity of the condition, physical therapy may be prescribed as a conservative treatment option. An exercise program designed to strengthen the quadriceps (upper thigh) muscles without irritating the patellofemoral joint can help to "realign" the patella and reduce frictional forces. Tightness in the hamstring and lateral (outside) hip muscles must also be addressed. Ice application after exercise is often used to prevent joint inflammation. A good home program includes appropriate exercise and instruction of activities to avoid such as excessive stooping and stairclimbing.

    Pain around and under the kneecap is probably the most common complaint amongst runners. This peri-patella pain, because of it's high frequency amongst runners, is termed "runner's knee". Generally the knee pains develop after a couple of kilometres of running and grow in intensity as the running continues. Hard downhill running will tend to be extremely painful with an already painful knee. After a night's rest, the knee might feel a little better to begin with, but the pain is likely to recur at approximately the same point in your run. The same may be true of taking time off. When you begin training again, the pain may return when you reach your old level of distance and intensity. The runner must be aware of any pains that develop in his knees, and should write down in his log-book exactly when his symptoms developed, how painful it became, what aggravated and/or eased his symptoms and the time period his pain lasted for after the run. Based on the above information, the runner can assess whether his problem is likely to be a biomechanical problem, or simply an

    http://www.sportstherapyalbany.com/Articles 2/knee.htm
    KNEE PAIN AMONG RUNNERS By Carey Donohue-Lawson P.T. Knee pain is a common complaint among runners. Patellofemoral pain syndrome accounts for many injuries that runners suffer. This condition is due to irritation of the cartilage on the undersurface of the patella (kneecap). The patellofemoral joint consists of the kneecap and the thigh bone (femur). As you bend and straighten the knee, the patella should travel in a groove on the femur. In patellofemoral syndrome, the patella is not centered in this groove, causing wear and tear on the patellar cartilage. The undersurface of the patella is usually smooth, however, due to the uneven wear, it becomes roughened and softened (chondramalacia). Pain, swelling and grinding noises (crepitus) result due to the increased tension and pressure in the knee while it is in the bent position. Factors that may increase the likelihood of having patellofemoral pain syndrome include: overuse with activities involving deep knee bending and pounding (jogging, hiking, downhill running), "knock- knees", flat (pronated) feet, wide hips, weak front and inner thigh muscles and tight lateral thigh muscles, a family tendency or a previous injury. Pain and swelling due to this condition can be relieved by rest, ice and over the counter anti-inflammatory medications. Modification of activities that require bending the knee may also be helpful. However, if the symptoms worsen or persist, you should consult your Physician. Anti-inflammatory medications may be prescribed to alleviate the pain and swelling. Physical Therapy will help decrease inflammation and restore the optimal positioning of the patella. Exercises are employed that are intended to stretch the muscles on the outside of the thigh and strengthen the muscles in the front and inner part of the thigh. The patella will then move smoothly through the groove on the femur when the thigh muscles are strong and well balanced. Surgery may be indicated in cases not responding to conservative treatment.

    While exercise is known to be vital for one’s general health, many physically active people develop conditions, which make it impossible for them to continue with their chosen form of activity. Anterior knee pain known as “runners knee” among road runners and “cyclist’s knee” in the cycling fraternity is one of the most common disabling conditions affecting physically active people of all ages – particularly athletes. The symptoms of this condition are pain behind or around the kneecap which might be associated with “creaking” while bending and straightening the knee when running, riding or exercising. The pain is usually aggravated by various activities, especially

    Sports Knee Braces
    Sports Knee Braces: Does wearing a knee brace improve or hamper your ability to perform? Squash and basketball players, runners and other athletes often wear sports knee braces during workouts and competitions. Sometimes the sports knee braces are worn after injury or surgery to limit and control movement at the knee and protect the knee from further damage; on other occasions, the sports knee braces may simply assist or provide stability for unsteady knees. Lots of athletes with knee troubles report that running feels easier and more sustainable when they are wearing a brace However, it's not clear to what extent sports knee braces actually affect performance. Because they tend to limit and control movement at the knee, can they slow athletes down significantly?

    Knee cartilage (meniscal) tears www.StudentHealth.co.uk Background information
    There are two cartilages in each knee. They are half-moon shaped pads between the large bones of the upper and lower leg. They absorb shocks and allow smooth functioning of the joint. Normal knee movement involves rotation. Forced rotation together with weight-bearing can lead to cartilage tears of varying severity. The cartilage on the inside of the knee is the most commonly affected. Symptoms
    The symptoms range from minimal aching to a painful, locking knee. There may be clicking and swelling. The knee can also give way in various positions and the range of movement of the joint may be limited. Diagnosis
    Full details of how the injury occurred and an examination of the knee are required, sometimes followed by other investigations such as arthroscopy or MRI. Meniscal tears can be difficult to diagnose. They can be combined with ligament injuries. Arthroscopy is a visual examination inside the knee using a special illuminated instrument and usually provides an accurate diagnosis. This investigation has been partly replaced by a new non-invasive imaging technique called MRI (magnetic resonance imaging), which also often confirms the diagnosis.

    by Daniel Batchelor,DC Sachi Koto, anchor reporter for CNN, called me and wanted to do an interview for a special report on running injuries. She wanted to know what it is that we do, and why we provide help when many other doctors do not. Sachi Koto is a runner, and she understands that many people have been brainwashed by the commercials and propaganda of the multi-billion-dollar drug and medical-related industries. She wanted to provide the public with the knowledge that there is a better way of treatment. Pain killers, muscle relaxants, and surgery are not the answers. Here are the highlights: Sachi Koto : Dr. Batchelor, why is it that you are able to help so many runners? What is it that makes you different? Dr. Batchelor : I've been a runner for the past 30 years. I've been a doctor that treats runners for almost 20 years. I have run more than 60,000 miles, won more than 300 road races, had almost every injury that a runner could have, and I have rehabilitated every one of my own injuries. It is for these reasons that I am able to help runners that have not been able to receive help elsewhere. Sachi Koto : What are the most common conditions that you treat in runners?

    Runner's Knee
    (Chondromalacia Patella)
    Runners Knee refers to pain "primarily" on the inside of the knee, although pain on both sides or beneath the kneecap can also occur. It is more commonly seen in runners as opposed to walkers due to high level of activity, particularly mileage. The key element in this injury is due to overpronation causing a repeated stress of the patella bone moving abnormally from side to side over the groove of the thigh bone (femur), gradually softening the cartilage under the kneecap. The result is the surface of the joint can become rough. Pain may be just a prelude to further destruction of the surface (traumatic arthritis). This injury can be confused with "Patella tendonitis" which is usually pain beneath the patella bone. In either case it is the "tracking" of either the bone or tendon which needs to be addressed.
    Other causes of this injury can be:
  • Weak quads Muscle imbalance Direct or repeated trauma An untreated ligament injury Running on a banked surface (similar to ITB Syndrome History of trauma
  • To treat:
  • Decrease activity Rest if pain and swelling Ice (for 15-20 minutes) Aspirin or Ibuprofen Physiotherapy Silicone Dynamic Orthotics to correct musculo-skeletal alignment, by correcting over- pronation.
