Case study: A 17-year-old female is referred to PT with a history of bilateral knee pain (R>L). She is very active within the school year participating in 3 sports throughout the year. She has noticed her pain is worse during track season (long-distance runner). Her pain is localized under the knee cap. She denies a history of swelling and mechanism of injury, but states that her pain is gradually worsening over the last couple months. What is the timeline and prognosis for this patient knowing the appropriate interventions that will help to reduce her symptoms?
