in dec 2006 i suffered a fall my knee swelled and the pain returned in my right knee , by the end of 3 months i was again on the 2 elbow crutches . i can not walk without support. i have pain over inferior pole patella. ROM terminally painful. x ray shows creptive changes over patellar articular surfaces . there is narrowing of patello femoral joint. also there is scarring of patella due to repeated surgeries.gap between lower end of patella and tibia has also reduced by 5 mm.resulting in rubbing of lower end of patella and the femur. MRI reports negate any chondromalacia patellae in articular surface of patella .Limited MRI could only reveal articular surface of patella.excessive image degradation of MRI was due to artifacts caused by ACL repair screws .what should i do to get rid of my knee pain ?
