Having changed trainers from Air Kantra to Mizuno Legend I have experienced pain on the inside and underneath the kneecap area .originally started after a 16 mile run and despite r,i,c,e + iboprufen no improvement felt and reoccurs at 3-4 mile stage.
Has anyone any ideas as the cause or how to treat this injury. Is it shoe related or a co-incidental injury

Assuming it's that, checkout: http://www.drkiper.com/articles/runners_knee.html and http://www.womenfitness.net/chondromalacia.htm, or for knee stuff generally : http://www.kneeguru.co.uk/
Problem I've found in being a runner, and more recently cyclist/triathlete, is the medics stop listening at 'runner' and assume it's all down to that, no any other sporting or non-sporting reason. Check out a few web sites to see common (or un-common) causes/treatment, as there's always several, and have a better dialogue with your gp/physio.
good luck with it
