What Is Severe Chondromalacia?
what is severe chondromalacia? I had a recent MRI because I had a Bakers cyst that wouldn t heal.It was blood filled due to my INR being too high. I have a Menisical tear. The MRI findings also mentioned the possibility of PVNS. I will be seeing my ortho soon, but do these warrant any treatment or questions for him?

Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern.
Bakers cyst secondary to meniscal tear is common and should heal spontaneously if treated properly. Chondromlaciae is weekening of cartilage,may be local,or generalised in all joints. It can get cured by taking cartilage strengthening tablets.
Nothing to worry about.
I hope your question has been answered.
If you have any follow-up queries,feel free to consult me anytime.
Thanks,Take care,God bless.
