It sounds like he has had extensive tests... what has the physiotherapy entailed? and is there any news on his condition now or is much the same?

Most recent physiotherapy has been straight leg exercises (now up to a four pound weight), leg clams with a resistance band, very low resistance leg presses, standing hip adduction.

Have also received autologous conditioned plasma injections (ACP) in the quad tendons to stimulate healing (also known as platelet rich plasma).

Current plan is to progress slowly with the physiotherapy and hopefully have the ACP injections restore the quad tendons to a pain free state. Condition has improved slightly - can walk short distances without pain, but still have trouble with stairs.
