What Is Chondromalacia?
Chondromalacia is inflammation and softening of the cartilage. This is sometimes treated along with patellofemoral pain syndrome. The cartilage under the kneecap is a natural shock absorber, and overuse and injury can cause increased deterioration and breakdown of the cartilage. The absence of cartilage damage and pain at the front of the knee due to overuse can be managed with a combination of rest, ice, compression, elevation, anti-inflammatory medication, and physiotherapy. Usually chondromalacia develops without swelling or bruising. Swimming has been known to reduce chondromalacia symptoms. Treatment with surgery is declining due to positive non-surgical outcomes.
