To Dr first or straight to PT?
10 year old Daughter has been dealing with patellar tendonitis for the past year. She was just doing gymnastics, but recently started track in top of that. Had a significant flare up and can barely walk the past 2 weeks. Should we take her to the Dr first or straight to PT. I have been doing knee rehab exercises with her the past week or so, but no progress. Wondering if the flare up is worse than I thought.

She ran her 100m a few times winning each one , so doubt anything is torn. She was just very sore afterwards and significantly more pain after those races.
