I'm a recovered patella-femoral patient, but have recently been experiencing pain in my knees when doing everyday things. i am young, so any advice?

Patellofemoral pain: What do you mean by "i'm a recovered patella-femoral patient" - if that means you have had a patellofemoral arthroplasty or replacement of the joint please let me know. Otherwise, if you have had anterior knee pain in the past and now it has come back, it is usually a result of abnormal tracking. Exercise focused to keep your quadriceps strong to control your patellar tracking is important.
