Anterior knee pain: You have classic symptoms of anterior (front) of the knee pain, AKA, patellofemoral syndrome. Common in young, active females. Not serious and usually not a surgical problem, but can be slow to improve. Recommend initial eval by orthopedic surgeon, trial of physical therapy, bracing, anti-inflammatory, and activity modification.
