from The New Grad Physio Podcast · host Andy Barker

Assessing swelling during your knee pain assessments is something I am sure you already do... But are you missing the main point of this simple assessment? You might use tests like a patella sweep or patella tap test to assess for the presence of knee joint swelling... But what do these tests really tell you and how can you use these simple test results to accurately find the right patient diagnosis? Simple tests at the knee might appear just that, simple, but, they can give you highly important information you need to find the right patient problems and ensure you are treating the source and not just the site of your patient's symptoms.
