Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello

Arthroscopy may also help you.

In arthroscopic shaving damaged cartilage is smoothened and loose friable cartilage is removed.
After micro fracture you may need proper exercises protocol and weight bearing as advised by surgeon need to be continued.

Avoiding steps and using western style toilets etc would be helpful.

Cartilage regeneration may take 3-4 months time.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
