Had surgery for knee bursitis about 10 months ago but now the pain is back can't bend my knee properly and standing for more than 20 minutes hurts. Could this be bursitis returning or something else going on?

Yes, it's possible that your knee pain is due to bursitis returning, but it could also be caused by other factors, such as insufficient rehabilitation, re-injury, or even the progression of other knee conditions. It's crucial to consult with your healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Is chondromalacia patella something that can ever be fully cured? I've been getting treatment for more than a year now. I've had an MRI, taken tablets, got HA injections, and even done physio, but I'm just not feeling the relief I was hoping for. I used to be super active in sports, and now I can't even jog. Can you please tell me honestly if there's a chance of curing it, or should I start thinking about adjusting my life around this? This is really important for me to know.
