- Chondromalacia patella usually doesn’t heal on its own without treatment of some sort. This usually entails activity modification and physical therapy. That being said, in my experience most with chondromalacia patella get better without surgery.

Thanks for the info. I’ve never had a knee injury in either leg but both my knees are very crunchy. I’m only 22 but it’s been happening since I was 16. No pain but the sound makes my stomach turn, can’t stand thinking about my bones grinding.
Have you seen orthopedic surgeon? I wish the doctor in the video had responded to you. I hate it when the doctor says that crunchy sound is from old age but I had a terrible accident in my late 30s and both my knees were injured but I only have the crunchy sound in my right knee. I’m getting a second opinion since the orthopedic surgeon didn’t even show me the MRI and only said that I needed surgery to correct a torn meniscus; however, it didn’t seem like he knew if the torn meniscus could cause the crunchy sound. According to the doctor in this video, it may be that cartilage issue in the knees causing the crunchy sound. Either way, I think you should see at least two orthopedic surgeons and have them review your MRI to see what is causing that crunchy sound in your knees.
I am curious to know if both of your knees cause this crunchy sound? I’m also curious to know if you saw an orthopedic surgeon and if they did an MRI to tell you what may be causing the crunchy sound in your knees when you didn’t have an injury or accident like I did.
Same thing happened to me
Thank you doc ❤
Thanks for this!!!
Thanks Doc
I believe I have knee crepitus ('crackling' knee). Do you think cycling will accelerate the degeneration of my knee ?
39, always had popping and crunchy knee, zero pain and plenty of strengh and flexibility. My only problem : I'm also an examinor and when I walk between the students tables in a silent classroom, my knee pops sound embarassingly loud haha.
Thanks
Hello doctor it would helpful if you give a reply. I have knee cracking but no pain but when I try to sit or squat it hurts very little. Is it arthritis ???
Hello Doctor I had a left knee surgery before for my knee cap I honestly don’t remember what is was but I’m getting the medical records of mine from 2007 and 2010. I had 2 screws back in 2007. Back in 2010 my orthopedic doctor took it out. And I was fine. I wasn’t sure if the cracking sound started from working out at the gym. But I have no pain at all. If you could give me some tips that would be really helpful cause I’m still working on my health insurance thank you so much. I hope it’s not too ask to ask.
my knee has been crunching ever since i dislocated my knee about 8 months ago. do you think i damaged the cartilage?
Hey Doc , both my knees click hard and very painful and I have extreme sciatica and spinal stenosis, it seems that when my sciatica kicks in that’s when the knees click , is the 2/3related? thx doc!
Thank you doctor for this video.
My knee cap is a bit loose and creates instability in the knee as I bend my leg or walk. I could feel the knee cap loosely move every time I bend my leg. X-ray shows that there is no problem with the bone and the cartilage in the knee. However, I am still concerned if the bones in the knee are grinding each other [because of the instability] when I bend the leg and thus create wear and tear. Or worse, the knee cap could be out of place and got damaged from walking. The doctor gave me a knee brace to wear for a few weeks, but it has not been that much help. Please let me know if my concerns are legitimate? Thank you.
I noticed it a little bit lately but my knee doesn’t hurt at all.
Top dok...very helpfull Wish you best things in Life
I have like a scar on my knee cap, is this bad?
ive had it since i was a kid tho. like litearlly since i was 11. it doesnt hurt and i was told it doesnt matter. i hope i wasnt given the wrong information at 11 because i ran with it. literally.
Ever thought of creating an app that is a virtual assistant for people that don't have a doctor or don't want to visit a hospital?
Can I continue to exercise normally?
Thanks doctor. How long should it roughly take to see a difference? I’m currently working on VMO strengthening
Strengthening done regularly takes anywhere from 6 weeks to a few months
what's the difference between Chondromalacia and Osteoarthritis? specially on knee or specifically patellofemoral joint since both kinda making similar noise which related to articular cartilage
chondromalacia basically means that the cartilage is bad in one area, arthritis would mean that it is bad in a lot of areas
Doc...losing weight , can be good for pfpsyndrome??
My knee has started to crack and click as i go downstairs but recently started to get abit painful.
For me it doesn't hurt but in the gym, whenever I squat there is this tik-tik sound and my trainer usually says that it is kinda loud and he advised me to take fish oil and calcium supplements at different points in time.
Your trainer is an idiot if they think calcium stops joints from making noise lmao
I had osgood-schlatters when I was a kid and I still can’t kneel on a hard surface because of the lumps in both knees. When I was about 12 I had them and I couldn’t play football/soccer as I was in bad pain with it. Now I hear a crunching noise in both knees when I bend and extend. I always wondered if that sound was anything to do with Osgood-schlatters.
hello Doctor, does that cracking, grinding annoying sound (no pain) ever goes away ? or do I learn to live with it ?
If cracking doesn't hurt then I tend to just ignore it. Sometimes strengthening some surrounding muscles will improve the biomechanics and cause the cracking to subside.
I have 0 pain. I'm 32 and my knees have been noisy as all hell my entire life. The only problem is people think I fart when it's just my knees as I stand in like at places like the post office. -__-"
Which muscles do you recommend exercising for the crepitus ?
Hamstring stretching and hip abductor strengthening
My left knee creak, like I put hand in dry cereal, and It hurts sometimes when I run. I practice everyday muscles on legs, hoping It will help but nothing does. what should I do? Im 16
Cut it off
👍🏽
2:45 I think the legs extension machine ruined my right knee bc i have the rice crispy noise there now and k always get pain after i used the machine in both my knees.
Did u still work out? Did the pain go away?
I’d like to know if you saw an orthopedic surgeon and got an MRI? If so, what did the doctor say? Did you have any kind of surgery? Did the sound and pain go away?
I visited 3. one said i might have athritis and the other two said they cant see anything on my x-ray. also took an mri and i had a bone marrow edema. i fixed it all with stretching. I use the leg extension again without a problem I am careful tho to not overload or swing.
@@thedesertdancer pain went away. I had no surgery. Yes I did an MRI and the doctors said its neglectable. I still have the cracking
@@lIIlllIIIl
So, the stretching only helped your Bone Marrow Edema diagnosis that the doctor noticed in the MRI. Glad you didn’t need surgery. Sorry the cracking knee sounds didn’t go away. My knees actually make that cracking sound too and I can feel something moving when I touch my knee once I hear the cracking. I seeking Orthopedic Doctor this week and I’m sure he will order an MRI and X-ray. Good luck to you.
Iam 37 years old ,is this normal for someone for my age?
No
I've got it and I'm the same age. I know somelne that has had it since he was 20.. He's 44 now.
Bro, I'm 28 and I got this problem...
I am 26 and I have this ! Why does it not go ?
The sad reality is four minutes of a sleek produced info commercial..shameful.
Good to see you're watching a different video!!
