My father has been dealing with knee pain for the last 7-8 months and the doctor mentioned the cartilage between his knee bones is almost gone They recommended a TKR but for now he's taking conjoint 3Denzomaccyra and pegNT meds along with injections every 15 days Is there any other way to fix this without surgery or will these medicines help heal it over time I've attached the xray report for reference

Severe knee pain from cartilage loss may be managed temporarily with injections (hyaluronic acid,PRP) and physiotherapy,but TKR is the only long‚Äëterm solution.

My mom is 64 and has osteoporosis with knee pain in both legs. She had an accident 10 years ago and still has a rod in her left thigh that runs from the upper thigh to just above the knee. I'm wondering if the rod needs to be removed before she gets knee replacement surgery. Also, the doctor suggested replacing both knees what are the risks and success rates for someone with her condition?
