Runner's Knee (Chondromalacia Patella)

Person with a knee injury on a road with trees in the background

Runner’s Knee (Chondromalacia Patella) is a common source of knee pain, especially among runners and active individuals. It occurs when the cartilage on the underside of the kneecap becomes irritated or begins to wear down. Because this cartilage acts as a natural shock absorber, damage can lead to discomfort during activities like climbing stairs, squatting, kneeling, or prolonged sitting.

Treatment typically focuses on reducing inflammation, supporting proper movement, and allowing the joint time to recover. Cold therapy is often used after activity to help calm irritation and minimize swelling. As symptoms improve, gentle moist heat may help relax surrounding muscles and improve circulation before stretching or strengthening exercises. Alternating between cooling and heat can provide simple, non-invasive support as part of a broader rehabilitation plan.
