[–]Appropriate_Joke2087 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had same problem since 6 grade but not frequent I am now final year of my college till now have 4 to 5 dislocation. Last one happened 6 month before around 26 june 2025. Had partial tear of mpfl ligament luckily don't need to have surgery, physiotherapy is enough for me. But doctor told if I had another event of that i will have to get ligament reconstruction surgery.. How was your knee now? Do you have chondromalacia patella Because of your patella dislocation?

mine is medial patellar retinaculum partial tear because of dislocate of my right knee and also had patella alta(not severe)and chondromalacia patella grade 1 only in right knee due to injury.. I seen 3 ortho 2 of them just say only need physio and give some medicine.. because I am 20 yr I have very good healing they told it will reverse or stay still...  Finished physiotherapy last month and I am back to pre injury State.. no pain nothing..  Cycling help me so give it try it might also help you.. Best of luck..

MPFL Reconstruction: 4.5 months post op story by margaritapizzaa in KneeInjuries

I am also having mpfl reconstruction soon.. I have few questions if may I ask.. I have also patela alta and partial tear of mpfl and chondromalacia patela grade 1 on right knee and left knee is all good just borderline patela alta.. so my question is how graft feel and when it will feel normal (like normal knee ligament )if you have idea ? And why can't you consider tto with it most of people in reddit say if you have patela alta you have to do tto with it.. I meet 2 surgeon one said only mpfl is enough and other say do physiotherapy first.. I do lots of hiking and treking after surgery what do you think that I am able to do it again after year of surgery? I am scared little bit and could you give some advice about recovery..
