Osteoarthritis is common, painful, and progressive. It’s also a top reason for joint replacement, but treatment doesn’t start with an operation. In fact, some nonsurgical treatments may eliminate the need for a surgical fix.
ACL tears are one of the most common knee injuries, particularly among athletes. If you opt for surgery, you face months of recovery, and whether you should have surgery may depend on how active you’d like to be in the future.
