Overuse problems of the knee :
Osgood Schlatter and surgery - - Posted by DMP (DMP), 23 September 2003
I had OS as a teenager and was (and still am) heavy into ethnic (East European) dancing. It ended up that I broke the tibial tubricle and had to get surgery to remove it in 1989.
Up to this day, I have had on and off problems with it, I am wondering if there is anyone with the same situation as I. I am wondering if I should get a scope done of my knee.
The doctor took an MRI of the knee, but does not really see much and asked if I wanted to get a scope.
I am really leary of going under the knife again. It took over a year to "recover" the first time, if that is whay you want to call it. To this day, my knee has always been at the best 75-85% of what it was.
Any suggestions,
DMP
