There are numerous causes of kneecap pain. The kneecap, or patella, along with the tibia and femur and numerous soft tissue structures, compose the knee joint. The patella protects the anterior or front aspect of the knee joint from injury. However, patella injuries and pain on the anterior aspect of the knee are common, and may be due to the following conditions: chondromalacia patellae, prepatellar bursitis or patellar subluxation or dislocation. Check here for more information about these conditions.
