Runner’s Knee, medically termed as Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS), is a common overuse injury that causes dull, aching pain around or behind the kneecap (patella), especially during activities like running, climbing stairs, squatting, or even prolonged sitting.
Despite its name, Runner’s Knee doesn’t affect just runners — it can impact cyclists, hikers, gym-goers, sportspersons, and even sedentary individuals. At Physio Ace Physiotherapy & Sports Rehab Clinic, we specialize in biomechanically targeted rehabilitation that not only relieves pain but addresses the root cause of the problem.
Runner’s Knee occurs when the patella does not move smoothly within the femoral groove during knee motion. This can cause increased pressure, friction, or misalignment, leading to irritation of the cartilage underneath the kneecap or surrounding soft tissues.
It's not one single condition — it’s a syndrome caused by a combination of factors such as muscle imbalance, poor tracking, or altered movement mechanics.
Runner’s Knee typically arises from a combination of:
the kneecap shifts laterally instead of gliding centrally
weak quads, glutes, or core
IT band, hamstrings, calf muscles
knock knees, leg length differences
without adequate recovery
