I am a 56 year old male started running on the treadmill a month ago 3 days a week 2 1/2 minuets at a time at 7.5 mph to get heart rate up and get ready for basketball I am a referee. All the sudden I have pain below my knee (patella tendonitis)? how do you properly stretch so you don t get it and how does it go away when I have to run for basketball 4 days a week?
