I have severe Patella Chondromalacia, for about 5 years, and I am only 16 years old.
I have had 6 knee surgeries, I have gone to physical therapy, religiously, I have been on tons of medicines, I have tried pain management, natural rememdies, and I am developing arthritis in my knees now.
Do you have any suggestions on medicines or doctors in the New York, Pennsylvania or Ohio area.
Any suggestions
Because what I have been doing is not working.
My knee is structural okay for now, but I have severe pain.
What about any kind of knee replacement, am I too young.
Your opinions would be great

total knee replacements average a life of about ten years, so most doctors will tell you that you are way too young to qualify for such a surgery.
If you have pain from arthritis then I suggest you see a rheumatologist for treatment.

attempt a dose of a organic homeopathic therapy called Rhus Tox 30c and notice if that helps. Rhus Tox is straightforward to help in such injury appropriate pains that's worse whilst commencing off to pass alongside with stiffness. It purely might desire to help you besides
