Procedures
Knee subluxation usually calls for rehabilitative therapy to strengthen the quadriceps muscles and keep the kneecap in alignment. Some doctors suggest that patients use orthopedic braces while working out, to keep the kneecap in place. In most cases, surgery is reserved for dislocation, which is when the patella is completely out of alignment. Your doctor will evaluate your condition, including the cause, and determine what method of treatment is suitable.Medication
N-SAIDS (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) such as acetaminophen and ibuprofen can alleviate pain and swelling. Your doctor may prescribe prescription painkillers.
Increasing muscle tone in your quadriceps will increase the knee joint’s stability, making it less likely for the kneecap to slide out of place. Your doctor can suggest simple exercises that you can do to increase the strength of your leg muscles.
