Patellofemoral Arthritis

Most common forms of treatments in treating patellofemoral arthritis are as follows:

• Rehabilitation exercises: Selective forms of exercises can strengthen the muscles that provide support to your knees.
• Supportive braces: Knee braces or arches provide support and may help deal with the pain.
• Taping: Taping is the process of taping knees to reduce pain and increase mobility. It is a highly technical process and your therapist will show you how to do it.
• Medications: Pain relievers like acetaminophen, ibuprofen, naproxen sodium, etc can help deal with the pain.
• Realignment: Severe cases of patellofemoral may require surgery. Realignment is a surgical procedure to realign the angle of the kneecap and relieve the pressure on the cartilage.
• Arthroscopy: This is another surgical procedure that involves the insertion of a thin device equipped with a camera lens into the knee through a tiny incision, and the fragments of the damaged cartilage are removed.
