Does cartilage use calcium to repair itself?
Yes, but often imperfectly and it takes a great deal of time. Cartilage tends to have a very poor blood supply, so it takes a long time for the cells to gather enough nutrients to build more matrix and repair the damage. If the damage was too severe, the cartilage will not have time to repair the damage before bony changes take over and prevent a return to normal function.
