I'm worried about my chondromalacia diagnosis from a few years ago. I sometimes didn't stick to the doctor's advice about not jumping, running, or folding my knees, and now Im experiencing knee pain whenever I put stress on them. I recently started karate classes that involve a lot of those activities. Is there anything youd recommend I do to manage the pain and keep my knees in good shape while still attending classes?

my doctor suggested biovisc injections for my shoulder joint gap instead of surgery does this treatment actually work or should i consider other options

Biovisc injections, also known as hyaluronic acid injections or viscosupplementation, can be a viable alternative to surgery for shoulder pain and joint gap, but they may not be a permanent solution. These injections work by increasing the viscosity of the joint fluid, which can reduce pain and improve mobility, but they don't address the underlying cause of the joint gap.

I've had knee pain for about 15 days and just got my MRI results. Can you help me understand if surgery is needed? I'm really worried about what the report says and what my options are.
