Movement around the kneecap when walking or riding bike. pain above the kneecap. some kind of blockage when running like can't extend fully due to?

Knee Cap: It sounds like you are having problems with your Patella or knee cap being out of its normal tracking. This can cause pain with the movements you are describing. You need to see a doctor. Bracing can help, but sometimes surgical release is needed. My daughter is an elite dancer and needed surgery on both knees to correct this.
