Mal Tracking Knee Caps - Essential info, expert advice and product recommendations

What is it?

A condition that produces abnormal stresses on the under-surface of the kneecap (patella) due to tracking abnormalities. Pain may vary from mild to severe discomfort.

Why do I have it?

Pain occurs when the kneecap (patella) does not track properly in the patellar groove. This is often caused due to thigh muscle imbalances, but can also result from an injury, overuse or excess weight.

When does it hurt?

Sitting, squatting, jumping and climbing/ descending stairs can cause discomfort.
