    Thanks a lot.
    Could you please describe what is the static hem? Secondly, if you could explain, how does the strengthening of the Quadriceps helps the problem?


    Thanks again,

    hi
    static hems means static hamstring. in a weak joint we always focus to strengthening the muscles around it. there are many other things to do with your knee joint e.g

    • Education
    • Activity Modification
    • Muscle strengthening/ stretching
    • Bracing
    • Patellar Taping

    So i think you should make some visits to a physiotherapist near to you which will be more better option i think.
