This study tests whether extra support from a clinician during a progressive exercise program helps people with Achilles tendon pain improve faster. You'll do exercises that gradually increase the load on your tendon, with guidance from a physical therapist via video visits.
This study tests whether resistance training can improve the health of the patellar tendon in people with patellar tendinopathy (pain at the knee cap). It may help you recover strength and reduce pain over time.
This trial tests if extracorporeal shock wave therapy (a non-surgical treatment using sound waves) can help athletes with patellar tendinopathy, also known as jumper's knee. It is for people who have had pain in the patellar tendon for at least 6 months and are active in jumping sports.
This trial studies whether electrical “deep needling” (a clinician inserts very thin needles and uses electricity) added to stretching and exercises can reduce Achilles tendon pain. It’s mainly for people with Achilles tendinopathy that started at least 3 months ago.
This study tests whether gentle resistance exercises plus a blood-flow restriction wrap can reduce long-lasting Achilles tendon pain. You may be asked to train in the clinic several times a week for 12 weeks.
This trial tests whether taking collagen plus vitamin C can improve “jumper’s knee” pain in active teens and young adults. It compares a supplement plan to see if symptoms and sports ability improve over time.
