Office of David Doubblestein Office Information

Directions

30 yo male, fit, healthy, etc. Started ~2 mos. ago. Had been doing 3-4 days/wk of heavy squatting for a few months prior. Front squats w/very full depth. Started insidiously. Continued squatting heavy for several weeks, pain stayed mild but has gradually increased to where it's quite uncomfortable to squat. Pain at worst when knee is fully flexed (bottom of squat) and then trying to stand. Mild joint line tenderness. No swelling, pain free full flexion & extension. No locking or clicking.

Anonymous Patient

One consideration that may have been missed is that symptoms in your leg may be coming from your back. These "radicular" symptoms can involve the whole leg, partial leg, or sporadic areas. Your squatting activity involves your low back significantly and repetitively. If you have not been successful with other treatment and therapies on your leg and knee then consider a mechanical diagnosis and therapy options from a certified McKenzie therapist.
