that pain is due to the patella malalignment at the patellofemoral joint. It is happening because the quadriceps muscle is feeling overused while undertaking the trek. The ACL is functioning well, and a repeat MRI will always show a torn ACL. Do a skyline view of the knee. Regularly train your muscle for trek or hike.
