Along with healthy eating, I got into going yoga and loved it- I sustained quadricep tendonitis a few months ago and despite cutting out all exercise it is still lingering. I went to my primary dr yesterday (I can’t afford fancy dr- was diagnosed with the tendonitis by my retired orthopedic surgeon grandfather)- and she suggested strength training. So I am going to try to transition back to doing yoga. I hope it helps.

Does it hurt just above the knee, especially when doing a fwd lunge? I had that from squatting heavy. I just searched on YouTube for PT stretches and lowered the weights on squats until the pain subsided.1
