A member asked:
Can arthritis cause patello femoral syndrome?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Significant arthritic damage on the back of your patella could be causing pain in that joint but, you are relatively young but you want to make sure nothing else could be causing your pain. I would suggest an orthopedic exam and xrays of the affected area.
