I'm experiencing a burning sensation after I pass stools, and it's happened twice just last week. The stool seems normal, and it's usually after I've had some spicy food. Should I be worried about this, or is it just the spicy food causing it?

Chondromalacia patella, also known as runner's knee, is a condition where the cartilage on the underside of the kneecap deteriorates and becomes soft. Unfortunately, chondromalacia patella is not permanently curable .
The good news is that symptoms can be managed with treatment, and in some cases, people can experience significant relief. However, the condition can be progressive, meaning it can worsen over time if not properly managed.
Given that you've been under treatment for over a year and haven't experienced the desired relief, it may be worth exploring alternative treatment options or seeking a second opinion from a specialist.
In terms of adjusting your lifestyle, it's great that you're thinking proactively. Considering your history with sports, you may need to modify your activities to reduce stress on your knee joint. Low-impact exercises like cycling or swimming might be more suitable options for you.
