Hi,Dear,
Thanks for the query to HCM. I studied your problem in depth and I understood your concerns.
Cause and plan of Treatment-
In my opinion on the given data,you seem to have synovial thickening from arthritis/ or Bursitis.
I would advise ER Ortho-Surgeon Consultation to avoid further complications with it.
Treatment- Endoscopic synovectomy for reducing the knee pain due to the entrapment of the synovial granulation thickening.
Supportive treatment with Rest/ Voltaren gel locally / hot fomentation / quadri exercises would go a long way with your wearing and aging knee.
Hope this would resolve your issues.Act fast.
So keep cool and Consult your ER Ortho Surgeon, if need be , who would treat it accordingly.
So don't build up wrong concepts and create more psychic complications in you which would increase risks and costs to you, but just ask a query to HCM and be comfortable to resolve your health issues.
Welcome for any more query in this regard to HCM.
Write good reviews and Click thanks if you feel satisfied with my advise.
Have a Good Day.
