Are You Experiencing Kneecap Pain? It Could Be Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

What Is Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome?

You were just told you have Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome. In short, we call it Runners Knee.  The pain is typically near the kneecap area. Patients feel the pain when running, climbing, squatting and when sitting for a long period of time. In some cases, a popping noise or cracking sound will occur. With the proper rest, exercises, self-care and shockwave therapy the pain can be greatly reduced or eliminated. We recommend scheduling an appointment with DR. Kocan to evaluate your possible runners knee. Call 859-344-6001
