Pain in popliteal fossa

[ramywhite]

Hi everybody, A case of 35 years old male postoperative reconstraction of ACL since about 18 weeks. Now, his quadriceps is normal, hamstring is normal, calf muscles are normal, no effusion, no pain in standing or climping stairs, slight decrease in knee flexion. But he suffers from pain at popliteal fossa at the end of knee flexion specially when he squats. His programme now is closed chain exercise but I give him with that some open chain.

What is this pain? Could open chain exercises be associated with that? And when I can focus on quadriceps only? Anyway this case has now normal quadriceps but I ask for further knowledge.

Thank you for your kind replies.
