I think when you've just got to manage it, certainly strengthening the muscles around it make a difference. One thing that has worked for me is when you come out of the squat/knee bend to continue slowly until you can't straighten it any more(almost hyper extend)and then pull up on you quad(tense the quad) if that makes sense. This pulls the tendons into their normal grooves...
