Patellofemoral pain syndrome causes pain around or behind the kneecap, often from overuse, muscle imbalance, or poor movement patterns. Physiotherapy helps correct alignment and strengthen the muscles that support the knee.
When to see a physiotherapist: Consult a doctor if knee pain persists despite rest or if swelling develops, and see a physiotherapist for a personalized strengthening plan.
