Are you an active athlete or gym-goer frustrated by nagging knee pain that interrupts your workouts? In this episode of the New York Pain Medicine Podcast, we break down two of the most common sports-related overuse injuries: Runner’s Knee (patellofemoral pain syndrome) and Jumper’s Knee (patellar tendonitis).

We discuss the key differences between generalized kneecap pain and localized tendon pain, and explain why a "one-size-fits-all" approach to sports rehabilitation simply doesn't work. Learn how Dr. Douglas Allen and the team at New York Pain Medicine utilize advanced, sports-specific treatments—including immediate pain management, biomechanical correction with gait analysis and custom orthotics, and progressive interventional therapies like Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections—to get you back in the game safely.

Key Topics Covered:

• The biomechanical differences between Runner’s Knee and Jumper’s Knee.
• The importance of receiving a specialized diagnosis rather than resting and hoping for the best.
• How New York Pain Medicine builds customized recovery plans tailored to the exact demands of your sport.
• Minimally invasive and progressive treatments available at our Midtown East clinic.
