A member asked:
I fell in feb on knees. surgeon says it caused chondromalacia. another surgeon reviewed notes & says it was preexisting. who do i believe?

Does it matter??: Chondromalcia of the knee or more probably the patella (knee cap) can be present with little or no symptoms. A fall can make this condition clinically painful or symptomatic. I take it that you may have some legal concerns about the fall and whether it was responsible for your symptoms after the fall. Some conditions can be present but not cause any symptoms until after an injury.
