Is Mobic Effective In The Treatment Of Knee Pain?
Is the script Mobic going to assist my pain in the knee from probably Patellar tendinosis? Or is ist just a glorified painkiller for arthritis? I am on 15mg a day at moment. The MRI report conclusion said. There is mild denegenration (OA) changes within the medial joint compartment. Proximal and distal patellar tendinosis. Would an Arthriscope be beneficial as described as maybe the next step by the doctor if these don t help? The tabs seem to have taken a bit of the edge of the pain although still bad. And I understand you cannot stay on them, no side affects so far.
