7 Best Treatments To Help Knee Pain From Chondromalacia Patella

Knee pain behind the knee cap is often connected to chondromalacia patella.

This is diagnosed by x-ray when there is "shrinking" or "thinning" cartilage on the backside of the knee cap.

Treatments tend to focus on using medications and injections to help reduce pain and inflammation... but they only help temporarily.

Some people even have surgery for chondromalacia patella! Microfracture surgery, articular debridement, chondroplasty, and in rare cases some even have a patella replacement surgery.

In this video, Dr. David shares the 7 best treatments for knee pain from chondromalacia patella.
