Chrondromalacia Symptoms cause sensitivity and a grating sensation accompanied by pain in front of the knee or just under the knee cap. The knee pain becomes worse after sitting for a prolonged period, getting out of a chair or after driving a car. The knee cartilage is affected from overuse, injury and/or a blow which may lead to an injury, such as a misaligned patella. Chondromalacia is treated with rest or immobilization. Physical therapy, especially quadriceps strengthening and hamstring stretching may also be helpful. Surgery is beneficial if there is a problem with the alignment of the patella that cannot be corrected with therapy.
Treatment with anti-inflammatory medications, ice packs and rest may help. (View our Cold/low level laser therapy section under inflammatory conditions.).
