Dear Richard
I have had good success with infra-patellar straps. They don't interfere with knee
motion. They seem to prevent the compression between the patellar cartilage and
the femur, thereby relieving pain. If the patello-femoral syndrome can be attributed
to poor tracking of the patella due to excessive subtalar pronation, a custom foot
orthosis has proven effective for a number of my clients.
