Homeopathy may help symptoms, but there's no strong evidence it can reverse avascular necrosis. Core decompression or stem cell therapy might help before joint replacement is needed.

I'm 60 but active and healthy with no diabetes or BP issues. Had an accident 6 months ago complete MCL tear, partial PCL tear, and horizontal meniscus tear. Doctors are split on whether I should get reconstruction, augmentation, and meniscus repair surgery because of my age. Is arthroscopy or keyhole surgery worth it at this stage?

A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
