I have knee tendonitis and want to treat it. Can a chiropractor help with knee tendonitis?

Usually not. Manipulation will not help knee tendonitis. It is best to see an Orthopaedic specialist or a physical therapist where medication plus ultrasound treatments have the best results. Hope it helps!
In general, it’s OK to try a chiropractor for a couple weeks. If it’s not working, Plan B. If it is working, should be done within 6 to 8 weeks. Otherwise, see an orthopedic surgeon.
Adjustments to the knee joint along with other therapeutic modalities have been shown to help treat knee tendonitis.
