Popliteal pain/posterior knee pain

[physiofixme]

pain on deep squat could also be meniscus. I'd look at "duck walk" If they can do this then it's unlikely to be meniscus. Do McMurrays test also to rule out meniscus. Do the resisted tests suggested below to confirm if it's popliteus.

Cause of injury may also give clues as to whether it's meniscus or popliteus.

Thanks everyone - definitely not meniscus. If it is popliteus, what line of treatment should I be following?

Hi,

I'm a student and I have a friend who I believe has a popliteus injury & would also love some suggestions on a treatment plan for this patient.

Much appriciated



Bobby.
