Knee:
Non traumatic problems beginning with normal movement should mainly be treated conservatively.
Arthrosis and meniscal degeneration is to be treated by you!
Low time preference option. Loose weight, exercise. Cycling helps by stimulating the tissues and cartilage widely.
Cleansing operations with arthroscopy. Might give short help, but wont last more than months and there’s evidence it might make it worse.
Only in severe arthrosis can a surgeon help. With extreme KL class III or more artrosis long time help is possible with endoprosthesis, but risky.
True traumatic meniscal or ligament problems with instability need surgical consideration.
Fracture treatment is mainly operative. Seek advice if you get a fracture.
