Knee Cap Pain is very common amongst adolescents particularly when they participate in sports which require running and jumping. If the pain is on top it could be from inflammation of the bursa which is a lining on top of your kneecap. It could also be arising from inflammation of the kneecap itself. You should consult your family doctor, a physical therapist or athletic trainer for instructions on proper exercise and activity modification. Bracing sometimes helps.

This is a question you should be asking her surgeon. Different surgeons have different recommendations and protocols. If I did a meniscectomy which means partial removal of the meniscus then I allow them to put full weight on the leg as tolerated and discard crutches when they feel stable. If I do a meniscus repair, I usually recommend protected weightbearing which means using crutches and putting partial weight on the operated leg for 4 weeks. In this scenario, you can still do stairs but you need to use her crutches and you should be trained in using crutches on stairs.
