    Sorry this is happening to you.  I am 5 months out from a PKR.  When I was 4 weeks into PT I  developed patella tendonitis. I had to stop my PT...only had two weeks left.  I continued to do the straight leg lifts to strengthen my quad.  I bought a patella tendon brace from  amazon and it’s clearly helped the pain while walking.. DOnt do anything that hurts that’s tendon...take stairs one at a time and be careful.
