Technique Tuesday Squinting Patella, MPDs, & Runner’s Knee Often, the patella is tilted and sits in the knee the way a beret rests on the side of one’s head, t...hus the term squinting patella. This abnormal positioning of the patella is a possible source of non-specific knee pain, and it can be caused by postural faults, including: knock-knees (genu valgum) bowed legs (genu varum) fallen arches (excessive pronation) high arches (excessive supination) We’ve seen how pronated feet can wreak havoc on the knees as strong valgus shearing forces strain tendons, cartilage, and ligamentous tissues. Conversely, reduced shock absorption from high-arched feet can compensate up the kinetic chain causing a varus (bowlegged) shear force through the knees. During gait, the slightest abnormality in the foot and ankle’s stirrup spring system (SSS) can alter antigravity function, resulting in knee and hip compensations. In the presence of prolonged foot pronation, many global and core muscles forget how to turn on and shut off in proper sequence. Faulty peripheral input leads to faulty cortical processing and altered motor output. Meanwhile, the cerebellum valiantly attempts to correct the person’s coordination and balance problem by triggering spinal reflexes and accompanying reactive muscle guarding.
