The kneecap, or patella, feels like a small, flat, oval-shaped bone located at the front of the knee joint. It has a smooth surface that allows it to glide over the femur as the knee bends and straightens. When you touch it, it can feel hard and bony, and it may be sensitive to pressure or impact, especially if there's an injury or condition affecting the knee. Overall, it plays a crucial role in knee function and stability.
