After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that it doesn’t have 10 year long side effects. If you have severe pain then kindly consult an orthopeditian for proper physical and diagnostic evaluation if you have developed something new etiology.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
