Knee Instability while walking
2 years back had an road accident which caused right knee dislocation. MRI scan reported "Chronic depressed fracture & remodelling of lateral tibial plateau with articular
surface irregularity and focal chondral defect in its weight bearing portion.
Large osteophytes and remodelling of proximal tibiofibular joint is also noted.
Minimal laxity of proximal portion of lateral collateral ligament & popliteus tendon"
Need suggestion if these issues can be treated by medication & by avoiding surgery
