The pes anserine is a region of the knee where the tendons of the semitendinosus (a hamstring muscle), the gracilis (inner thigh muscle), and sartorius (front of thigh muscle) join together along the medial knee. Due to the shared insertion of these muscle, when one muscle becomes overused or irritated it can affect the others that attach onto this region. What should knee rehab start with? First and foremost you'd want to make sure you aren't doing an exercise that you aren't supposed to be doing due to a torn meniscus or ligament.
