What Is Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome? Symptoms & Diagnosis

[@cobol4]

Great information sir. I am on naproxen and it feels like tissues around knee are irritated. Simple careful walking feels like there are stitches around my knee that are irritated. I have been diagnosed with PFPS and advised PT. But, it worsened my pain so I am resting and plan on doing PT after pain gets better.

Wow Dr … the surgeon told me he will have to cut the bone below the knee which holding the knee cap compressed to the knee and he said it’s coming from my hip but he never told me about the glute strength…thanks a lot ..will definitely start the glute exercises right a way

[@joshuahankins2613]

So if I do glute exercises for a month then can you add in quad exercises for patellarfemoral pain syndrome.

Thanks doctor, now I know my cartilage is fine, not the reason for my sharp knee pain, will watch your other videos to find the answer. Thanks for educating us! 👍🙂

I have pain right above the kneecap really bad. I had to go get an injection because I couldn't stand the pain. What's your opinion and what can I do about it. I am 56 years old.

Doctor what do you do for your crunchy knees ? Do you think the crunch will always be there ?

[@ollirumari4573]

I just found out i have this in both my knees 😢 and i have on my left knee a menicus tear😢 I dont know what to do .Do you think if i buy a wheelchair and not walk alot for awhile it will help for the patella and the menicus?

[@rafaelalba0910]

My glutes and hip abductors need to be worked upon but only once I get the pain to go away.

Can you talk about hoffas fat pad syndrome??

[@atianazim3968]

Can chondrmalacia pateela syndrome cause space reduction in knees

[@epmanualphysicaltherapy]

Hello Atia! Great question! Yes chondromalacia patella can cause a space reduction inside the knee joint.

[@ronaldrodriguez1605]

What's the solution when the quat muscle are weak like my case I forget about my quats and work out muy butt muscle

[@mohergenrader2113]

It's obvious to me by looking at an mri or xray that the patella is not in the groove of the femur. Doctor's only see the femur/tibia space is ok although reduced. So i suffer from WWS. Whiney Woman Syndrome.
