    I ended up doing the “DIY way and making my own .

    As of now I believe that I havetendonitis (no inflammation) of my quad to patella.

    Deep flexion is what aggravates it most, its pops if I do squats (no pain) and most days now its a vague ache but will throb if worked on.

    currently I stretch my hips externally + internally, Hamstrings,calfs quads glutes. Use a ball to smash my quad and it band, a stick to get hammies. And I started adding in cardio but keeping it recumb bike – This makes it throb during, and stairaster which doesnt bother it at all.
    Also I n the shower I have been doing 3 minutes HOT and 30 seconds ICE COLD on knee 2-3x per knee at the end of showers to help circulation.
    I am taking Glucosamine, MSM, chondrotion, biocell collagen type II, and hydrolaurnic acid.
    Been religious about this for a month and have see no – little improvement, any suggestions?

    Also I had someone suggest it was

    aka runner’s knee.
    My main apprehension of accepting this is that my pain started front squatting in olympic lifting shoes. And I have always been very quad dominant.
    the recommendation is to str the quad, it seems more likely to be imbalances and im worried about axasterbating them by just generally str the quad without a specific target.

    to add, I also had been working on going narrower with my feet from the advice on the 10 min squat test.

    I have no issue going deep without pain when my legs/feet are at approximately 45 degrees out.
    the cracking and pain sensations only appear when I go 20-0 degrees.
