General & Family Physician,  's  Response
dear friend
your MRI report indicated ,moderately damaged knee joint with inflammatory process in the knee.
the meniscal and ligament issues can be handled surgically by arthroscopic surgery which is a minimally invasive procedure, the early OA in the knee is a degenerative process and can not be reversed, with physiotherapy and life style modification you can preserve the knee for a long time, the detail of the precautions and the line of physiotherapy will need to be discussed with your respective doctor and therapist, at that point if you have any queries you can also get it clarified by us
