Could someone point me in the direction of a UK Physio with knowledge of patella maltracking?
My current physio comes highly recommended in my local area but I get the feeling he has taken me as far he can with his level of knowledge and expertise. He took me down the textbook path of quad strengthening, then orthotics, then kneecap strapping none of which worked. I could do with seeing someone who has track record in this specific injury.
Have they worked the ITB with deep treatment? Press deep into it..any discomfort. If all that ain't worked then he is missing something there...
He hasnt mentioned ITB once. At the 1st session he said my quad was too tense and couldnt get it to relax, he also said it was slow to contract and my q angle was miles from the norm at 30 degrees. The subsequent sessions have been directed at strenthening the quad and the orthotics were fitted to correct the misalignments. Apparantley I have a large knee cap, pronate and have quite turned in hips but it wasnt really explained to me how this effects my injury. He said physio and orthotics got the Q angle down to about 17-18 degrees but I explained I still get pain either running or the next day after the run.
Is it worth an MRI?
