Hello.
The cause of your knee pain may not necessarily be attributed to the loose body. There is minimal joint effusion as well, which implies there is fluid collection inside the knee joint.
Next Steps
The cause of the fluid collection and loose body would need to be evaluated. Would require examination of the knee joint.
