A doctor has provided 1 answer
Knee cap problem: Pain in the knee particularly with stairs usually points to some irritation or inflmmation of the cartilage behind the knee cap. A combination of low impact quadriceps strengthening exercises, anti-inflammatory medications, and weight loss (if indicated) will help your symptoms.
