How To Stop This Pain From Patella Femoral Syndrome?

I have had patella femoral syndrom in both my knees for about 4 years now. I am an active and competative dancer and no i can’t take it easy and i will never stop dancing. I wear knee braces whenever i dance and i have gone to physical therapy for about 8 weeks and the tracking of my patella has greatly improved it still rotates a little bit outward but it is alot better and my therapist said my knee control is ten times better. But the pain has barely gone away! I have done the RICE meathod millions of times and while the ice helps for a little bit it is short lived. Is it possible this is not PFS? Do i need surgery? My therapist said there’s not much more he can do…..how can i stop this terrible pain!!!!!!
P.S. I also have been off dance all this week and will be all of next
P.S.S I am a 14 year old female
