I have just had a arthroscopy on my knee and an ulcer was discovered on the cartilage on my knee. It had not reached the bone yet but in about 10 years it will have, which means I will need a partial or full knee replacement. It was only today I found this out and anyone that knows about this, please let me know. I have just had a arthroscopy on my knee and an ulcer was discovered on the cartilage on my knee.
