Cartilage Regeneration
My chondromalasia patellae problem is almost cured now. The cause was imbalance between VMO and VL. I have gained the muscle strength and balance by physiotherapy. My doubt is although the patella tracking is aligned now but what about the damage of knee cartilage that occurrd due to poor patella tracking in last 1 yr?

i don't think within 1 yr your cartilage undergone damage..there might be some damage but I don't think it will be significant..you are 31 yr old and your cartilage is also of good quality so nothing to worry about...more so ever if you realy
want to assess the damage,you can undergo cartigramme(cartilage mapping)
