Hi I Had A Knee Operation 15 Years Ago Where
Hi
I had a knee operation 15 years ago where the cartilage was torn and locking between ball and socket. Keyhole surgery removed cartilage and no problems since.
Recently having intermittent sharp, shooting pains depending on how my knee is positioned. One incident where the knee locked felt as if it locked very painful). Too across to drive as having twinges like knee is going to lock?
Will this require another arthroscopy?
Many Thanks
Claire
