Do you feel pain behind your kneecap while climbing stairs, sitting for long periods, or squatting? These are classic signs of Chondromalacia Patella, a condition where the cartilage under the kneecap becomes irritated or softened. Many patients search for a βphysiotherapist near meβ when this pain starts affecting daily movement.
Why It Happens
Weak quadriceps (especially VMO), poor patellar tracking, flat feet, muscle imbalance, overuse, or sudden activity increases can strain the patellofemoral joint.
Common Symptoms
Pain while climbing stairs
Discomfort after sitting (βmovie-goers kneeβ)
Grinding or clicking under the kneecap
Pain during deep squats or running
Physiotherapy Treatment
Pain relief using IFT, ultrasound, taping
VMO strengthening to improve kneecap alignment
Hip and glute strengthening to reduce knee load
Stretching of tight quads, hamstrings, and IT band
Foot posture correction or orthotics if needed
Activity modification and movement retraining
With the right rehab plan, most patients return to pain-free movement without surgery.
For expert knee rehabilitation, consult Dr. Deepika Bansal β Physiotherapist in Balewadi, Wakad, Aundh, Pimple Saudagar.
