Hi. I am 54 and was pretty active up until July 7t. I did a lot of biking zumba and power walking. In July i came down with a bad bout of sciatica. Took me till Sept to start to come back. Started walking and knees have been swollen ever since. Had 3 cortisone’s and do PT every week. Have 3 different ortho doc opinions
MRI shows almost bone on bone, 3mm of cartilage on patella.
1st doc said TKR
2nd doc days PT and Rooster Shots.
3rd doc says to try arthroscopy first then maybe a partial?
Help.
They say I have moderate degenerative OA. The only things I have been doing is 10 minutes of stationary bike and 30 minutes of walking a few times a week. Lots of crunching knees and swelling is bad in right knee
