Frequently Asked Questions (Knee Care)
What is High Tibial Osteotomy (HTO)?
HTO is a knee-preserving surgical procedure that reshapes the shin bone to shift weight away from the damaged side of the knee to the healthy side, delaying or preventing the need for joint replacement.
Can knee cartilage regenerate naturally?
Hyaline joint cartilage has very limited blood supply. Specialized procedures like microfracture or biological cell therapy stimulate repair cartilage formation to alleviate pain.
Why does my knee make popping or clicking noises?
Clicking or popping accompanied by pain or swelling may indicate a meniscus tear, loose cartilage fragment, or patellar tracking issue that should be evaluated clinically.
