Patellar instability is characterized by the patella's (the kneecap) displacement from the femoral groove. Dislocated knees might result from an unstable kneecap. Leg braces and physical therapy both have their uses. Occasionally, patellar instability is chronic (ongoing). A dislocated knee is more likely with this condition. Make an appointment with a doctor if the kneecap does not return to the trochlear groove on its own. During treatment, the kneecap will be gently pushed back into position. It may be difficult to go through the reduction process. Analgesics may be given to the patient.
