The knee is made up of three separate joints; the Tibio-femoral joint (between your thigh and your shin), the patella-femoral joint (between your thigh and the knee-cap) and the Tibia-fibula joint (between the two bones in your shin). The knee is designed to flex and extend (bend and straighten), but also has an important role in taking the whole weight of our body when we stand, walk and run. Injury or trauma to structures at the knee can be a common source of pain, as can natural degeneration to the joint, from conditions like osteo-arthritis.

Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome

The patella-femoral joint is at the front of the knee joint, and its important in how we walk and allows us to effectively straighten our leg.

The position of the patella (our kneecap) is dependent on muscle balance and the alignment of your leg. When this muscle balance isn’t correct for the patello-femoral joint it can cause pain when we do certain activities.
