“What began as a mild ache in my knee turned into a constant pain every time I sat for long or tried climbing stairs. Hearing the grinding sound inside my knee made me anxious, and that’s when I learned it was Chondromalacia Patella.”
Chondromalacia Patella is a knee disorder where the cartilage under the kneecap (patella) softens, thins, or wears down, leading to pain, swelling, and a grinding or cracking sensation in the front of the knee. It is commonly triggered by overuse, misalignment of the kneecap, injury, or muscle imbalance, and is often referred to as Runner’s Knee.

With structured physiotherapy, strengthening, and activity modification, many patients safely return to sports or functional activities. Recovery is gradual but very possible with consistency.
Rest alone may not correct the underlying problem. At Jeevaniyam, we focus on muscle balance, patellar tracking, and holistic care to prevent recurrence.
