Hi
There might be bursitis
Pls get serum uric acid checked
Since there are developmental issues with your patella, there is uneven load distribution over your patellofemoral joint which is leading to thinning of your cartilage of the patella which might be the reason for your pain
you would also like to get a ct scan about the alignment of patella
