showing of all-time updates
M | Sep 19 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Science update, patellar circulation — At last, some long-awaited new patellar circulation evidence, plus significant revision and other improvements, especially the addition of a new discussion about the therapeutic implications (does exercise improve circulation, mainly). |
S | May 29 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Editing, multiple topics — Just editing, but a noteworthy batch of edits to several chapters. I made minor corrections and adjustments to every recently added or revised chapter, and some small but (I hope) meaningful clarifications to how “resting” is presented as a treatment strategy. |
L | May 2 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — New sub-topic, patellofemoral joint replacement — Added a substantial discussion of patellofemoral joint replacement, and made a number of other modest improvements to the surgery chapter. |
S | Apr 3 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Minor upgrades, patellofemoral joint pressure — After publishing part of this chapter as an excerpt, I made several minor improvements, and added one simple diagram. |

Includes audio version. |
L | Dec 20 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Revised and expanded, trigger points chapter — The section had been short and basic for many years, and many readers would never have guessed how much more I’ve written about this topic. It’s now more thorough and more in tune with the times, including the modern skeptical pespective on trigger points, and a more nuanced discussion of what role they might or might not have in patellofemoral pain. |
S | Dec 19 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Minor editing, patellofemoral pain vs ITBS — Just a few little improvements, especially harmonizing with the IT band tightness chapter. |
L | Dec 12 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Many improvements, differential diagnosis — After greatly expanding this chapter in 2022, it was a bit of a mess: thorough but disorganized. I eliminated some egregious rambling (was I drunk?). |
M | Dec 9 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — New topic, analgesics chapter — Added a small section: “Be careful what you wish for: pain relief can be problematic.” |
M | Dec 9 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Major revision, intro to diagnosis — I pretty much just started from scratch and re-wrote this chapter. It’s now better in all the ways, I think. |
L | Dec 8 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — New section, criteria for discontinuing running. |
L | Dec 8 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — New sub-topic, cartilage thickness — Added a substantive new sub-topic: “Built for pressure: How thick is the patellofemoral joint cartilage? And the patella?” |

M | Jan '22 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Added sub-topic, ozone therapy — Added a discussion of ozone therapy, which just barely qualifies as a “regenerative” therapy, and my only advice is to avoid it, so it’s a minor addition here — but an interesting one. |

M | 2021 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Proofreading — Top-to-bottom check for typos and other minor errors. They creep in over the years as I work on updates to the book. A good three dozen of the little buggers identified and fixed this time. |

M | 2019 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Minor addition, resting pitfalls — Added a brief discussion of an important principle: exercise is a pain-killer! Sometimes. |

M | 2011 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Important new info — Where’s the fire? Recently I published a major new article about repetitive strain injuries, in which I explain that these injuries are rarely actually inflamed.

L | 2009 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — New section: “What about pronating?” |
L | 2009 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — The visual design of the site was upgraded over the past several days. Although this is not an update to the content of this tutorial, it is nevertheless a significant upgrade for all of them — like publishing new editions of books with better typesetting and layout. The new design is even cleaner and reader-friendly; it now looks that good in most web browsers; and pages load as much as 50% faster. Many under-the-hood improvements will make it much easier for me to improve tutorial content. The tutorials are now well-oiled machines of digital publishing goodness. |
L | 2009 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Major restructuring and editing of several sections related to therapies based on the assumption of a tracking problem.

L | 2009 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Added a small new section about Traumeel, a popular but questionable remedy that I often get asked about. See the section, “Don’t bother with Traumeel,” or the free article, Does Arnica Gel Work for Pain?. |
M | 2008 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — The New England Journal of Medicine just published two fascinating new papers about knee pain, knee osteoarthritis, and knee surgery.

Kirkley et al’s paper about surgery for osteoarthritis and Englund et al’s fascinating findings about torn menisci have been added to the tutorial. |
M | 2008 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Added information about taping to the section “Taping (Kinesio Taping®) and strapping.” |

L | 2007 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Release of major new version of the article, almost three times as long. All traces of “structuralism” have been removed. Much more detailed and useful exploration of the causes of PFPS has been added, as well as many vital new sections of self-treatment. Many more improvements to the document are due over the next couple weeks as this version gets polished. |
M | 2007 | The Complete Guide to Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome — Expanded several of the introductory sections, added the humourous “graphical definition” of PFPS, and expanded the explanation of patellofemoral tracking syndrome and added the “wide hips” diagram. Added detailed treatment section on knee taping and knee straps, with numerous new footnotes. More major changes are due shortly. |
