Knee pain: Chronic knee pain under the knee cap may have many causes. Acute gout attack can be easily treated with oral medications, diet and fluid hydration. If your symptom is caused by increasing use of your knee, you may have the common patellofemoral pain syndrome or runner's knee. Talk to your doc to get the definitive diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
