Brief Answer:
Reduced joint space

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query

The X ray you have attached shows reduced joint space in the right knee joint. This is common in elderly and occurs due to wear and tear of the joint cartilage.

There are a few treatment options with narrow margins of recovery. Most of times it's only pain management is what we can do.

If you want a call, please contact customer care for the same.
Note: For further queries, consult a joint and bone specialist, an Orthopaedic surgeon. Book a Call now.
