What are the symptoms of chondromalacia?
Chondromalacia can affect any joint, but the most common location is inside the knee. It usually begins as a small area of softened cartilage behind the kneecap (patella) that can be painful. Eventually, more of the cartilage softens, and the softened cartilage can crack or shred into a mass of fibers. In severe cases, the damaged cartilage can wear away completely, down to the undersurface of the kneecap. If this happens, the exposed kneecap's bony surface can grind painfully against other knee bones. Also, bits of cartilage can float inside the joint, further irritating the cells that line the joint. In response, these cells produce fluid inside the joint (called a joint effusion).
What will happen if the bones at joint are rough and there are no ligament and cartilages?
If the bones at a joint are rough and there are no ligaments or cartilages to provide cushioning and stability, it can lead to increased friction between the bones, resulting in pain, inflammation, and potentially joint damage over time. Lack of ligaments can also compromise joint stability, increasing the risk of dislocation or injury during movement.
Is there any cartilage in the knee?
Absolutely. The cartilage or "Meniscus" in the knee covers the three main bones it (the knee) is comprised of and is very important to it's healthy/painfree movement, stability of the joint and reduction of internal bone damage.

Overuse, injury or other factors may lead to a condition known as chondromalacia patella, a general term indicating damage to the cartilage under your kneecap. A more accurate term for chondromalacia patella is patellofemoral pain syndrome.
What happens if the epiphyseal cartilage is damaged?
Damaged cartilage can float freely around in the bursa without causing problems. It can also get trapped in the joint, causing the joint to lock up. Arthroscopic surgery is the least invasive way to remove damaged cartilage.
Is there any veins in your cartilage?
Yes there are veins in the cartilage.
Why are the ends of your bones covered in cartilage?
The cartilage is a protective covering which encases a lubricating fluid, to prevent damage to the bones caused by friction.If you didn't have any cartilage in your joints your bones would not stay in place they would just fall out and if they didn't u would be in extrem pain constantlyCartilage prevents the ends of bones from rubbing on each other. Without cartilage, walking would be very painful.
