 diagnosed with degenerative cartilage of the knee and also a fractured knee cap -- my doctor has told me I would be looking at a knee replacement in the next 2 years -- I am only 52 and have never had problems until last year -- to date, I have received 3 cortisone injections since January 2009 along with arthroscopic surgery -- is there anything I can do to strenghten the knee as I am still experiencing pain when walking and have read that the cortisone shots could be breaking down the  cartilage even more

Bionicare

Before anyone has a total knee they need to try this product. It has a lot of research out of John Hopkins. It is called "Bionicare" . It is a non-invasive treatment for Osteoarthritis of the knee. It is FDA approved and paid for by Medicare in most regions of the U.S.. There is nothing like it on the market, one of a kind treatment. The success stories are amazing and in most cases it has given people back their lives. It reduces pain and restores function that has been lost due to years of osteoarthritis. My recommendation is that if you are looking for answers besides a total knee replacement and have tried medication, rehab, injections, etc, I suggest you look into this as another alternative. I have a friend that has distributed this product for a few years and his patients have a 80% success rate. You can also read about the product at Vqorthocare.com click on Products click on OActive/Bionicare click on to learn more Please email me at lynnb@vqorthocare.com or call me at 714-313-9999 I would love to help you.

Answer This
The breakdown of cartilage in the knee can lead to bony protrusions called spurs and considerable joint pain.
