I have a meniscus extrusion in my right knee and a small area of full-thickness cartilage loss measuring 9x7 mm. I'm only 25 if I get surgery now, will I still be able to walk normally by the time I'm 40?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, if you address the meniscus extrusion and cartilage loss with appropriate treatment, including surgery if necessary, you can likely maintain normal walking and other activities by the time you are 40. Early intervention and a focused rehabilitation program are key to maximizing your long-term knee health

My mom is 63 and has been having knee pain lately. She's using Himalaya joint pain oil which helps a bit but she's scared to see a doctor in case they recommend surgery. Should we keep using the oil or is it better to get her checked out?
It's important for your mother to see a doctor about her knee pain, even if it's just for a bit of relief with the Himalaya oil. While the oil may offer temporary relief, it's not a long-term solution and a doctor can help determine the cause and recommend the best course of treatment, which may not always involve surgery.
