I had a shot in the knee in May and it definitely helped. Ortho guy also set me up for Physical therapy and that"s helping too.
Had both minisci repaired 11 years ago and some arthritis removed.
Back in May, on to a podiatrist to biopsy a suspicious black spot under a toe nail. (Pathology report negative--a hematoma.)
