First, you describe wear and tear "chondromalacia", and an injury to at least one meniscus. Would consult with an orthopedic surgeon. Surgery is not always the approach, as a steroid injection and a series of hyaluronic acid injections might be preferred approaches. Physical therapy definitely should be commenced.

Very young for this problem. You could have a biomechanical problem causing abnormal wear of the he joint cartilage. If you have “flat”feet or muscle imbalance or rotation at the hip can be involved.
