Patella Chondromalacia."?

I have severe Patella Chondromalacia, for about 5 years, and I am only 16 years old.
I have had 6 knee surgeries, I have gone to physical therapy, religiously, I have been on tons of medicines, I have tried pain management, natural rememdies, and I am developing arthritis in my knees now.
Do you have any suggestions on medicines or doctors in the New York, Pennsylvania or Ohio area.
Any suggestions
Because what I have been doing is not working.
My knee is structural okay for now, but I have severe pain.
What about any kind of knee replacement, am I too young.
Your opinions would be great

I would suggest that you get an opinion from Dr. Kenneth Marks at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. He is a world-class Orthopedic Surgeon with "gray hair" in the best sense.

Aloha
