  • @supyal19 I've had this since i was 10 and my knee used to get swollen when i did physical activity. I was told to ice my knee after, maybe take an advil. hope this helps :)

  • I've actually had this for 8 months but I got diagnosed last week. I have to do excercises to strengthenmy knees ( I have the syndrome in both knees), I have to ice both knees for 20 mins after soccer practice, and I wear patella straps. You can find them at drug stores and trust me, they make a huge difference!:)

  • i have this but my knee is swollen what does that mean

  • @Renegade23456 Yeah me too :(

  • i got this from football....

  • can this be treated permanently?? (I'm a 23yo male) I have been having this pain since I was 10yo....

  • @Bolduccjperson1 What type of brace?? We just confirmed i have this AND in my other leg, i have a scar on the bone from a hurdle accident :( They said a brace might help

  • thank you, i have worn a brace for about 6 months and it helped

  • Ty. I just got told today i might have Patellofemoral Syndrome. I used to be a cross country runner and a hurrdler so it all makes sense. I had a fall 2 years ago that might of trigered it, i tore my whole leg to pices and i haven't been able to run since. :( Ty for this video.
