A member asked:

I dance over 10 hrs a wk &have knee pain on the outside of my kneecap for over a wk but i don't remember injuring it... is it simple overuse or worse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sometimes: The pre-patellar bursa may get inflame, but it will get swollen. Other times the ligaments above or below your patella can get strained, as well as collateral ligaments in each side of knee. Rest and ice should help, if persists, go have evaluated.
