What Causes Severe Knee Pain While Bending The Leg?

I had a patellar subluxation in October. Ever since then I haven t been able to be in a deep bend with my knee. I get a really intense pain when I try but I ve been able to bend it more than before but its frustrating when its getting in the way of dancing and track. I m scared I wont be able to bend my knee completely anymore. I was in physical therapy for 4 months and I was cleared to do physical activity in February. When will this pain go away completely?

Hi,
From history it seems that due to injury on knee joint there might be having some degenerative changes in knee joint with some cartilage damage might give this problem.
Go for x-ray knee joint for any this type of lesion.
Meanwhile go for patellar exercises daily.
Do not bend knee joint more than 90 degree.
Do not sit on squatting position.
Ok and take care.
