Patellar Tendonitis Treatment in San Antonio, TX

Patellar tendinitis, also known as jumper's knee, is a common overuse injury that causes pain and inflammation in the patellar tendon located just below the kneecap. This condition often affects individuals who engage in repetitive jumping, running, or heavy lifting, such as athletes and active individuals. It can also occur in those with poor technique or weak muscles around the knee.

At Advanced Regenerative Center of South Texas, we specialize in treating patellar tendonitis using non-surgical regenerative therapies. Our goal is to support tendon healing, reduce inflammation, and improve joint function, helping patients recover faster and return to the activities they love without the need for surgery.

We offer platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and stem cell therapy as effective solutions for tendon repair. PRP therapy uses your body's own growth factors from concentrated platelets to stimulate healing in the damaged tendon. Stem cell therapy, using regenerative cells from umbilical tissue, is designed to promote tissue repair and regeneration at the cellular level, speeding up recovery and providing long-term benefits.

All procedures are performed by Dr. Asim Merchant, MD, a board-certified physician with advanced expertise in sports medicine. Using ultrasound-guided injections, we ensure precise delivery of regenerative treatments to the affected area, maximizing the effectiveness of the therapy.

Symptoms of patellar tendonitis include pain just below the kneecap, swelling, weakness, and difficulty with physical activities such as jumping, running, or climbing stairs. If left untreated, the condition can become chronic, leading to further damage and prolonged pain.

At Advanced Regenerative Center of South Texas, we focus on providing personalized, evidence-based care for each patient. Our regenerative treatments aim to reduce pain, promote tendon healing, and restore function. Many patients in San Antonio and surrounding areas have successfully used our non-surgical approaches to treat patellar tendonitis and avoid invasive surgeries.
