The cause of pain in the thigh tendon when bending over should be analyzed according to specific circumstances. If a patient experiences pain in the tendon behind the knee joint while bending over, it may be due to a meniscus injury. If the pain occurs on the side or front area of the knee joint during bending, it is likely caused by synovitis. This is mainly because bending increases tension on the synovial membrane, and once inflammation develops, it manifests as pain in the anterolateral region of the knee joint.
