The popliteus is a small muscle that runs behind the knee. Due to its small size compared to the hamstrings above and the calf below, it is often overlooked in knee and lower leg injuries. It also isn't a very strong muscle, which adds to its relative obscurity. It is, however, of paramount importance to athletes.
Popliteus tendonitis or injury is inflammation or injury to the small muscle at the back of the knee called the popliteus. The role of the popliteus muscle is to internally rotate the tibia or shin bone. Symptoms include pain at the back of the knee joint with tenderness when pressing in.Pain may be reproduced when the knee is bent against resistance whilst the lower leg or tibia bone is rotated outwards.t is usually caused by an injury or condition in the knee joint which will make the back of the knee swell up increasing pressure and causing pain. There is usually a very obvious round golf ball sized swelling at the back of the knee.
