These are degenerative changes in the knee joint. You have not mentioned your present symptoms pertaining to this radiological findings. Anyways if you experience pain and stiffness in your knee joints, you should start on physiotherapy treatment. You need not worry about the x ray findings. Your disability can be cured with physiotherapy. You can start wearing a hinged knee brace.
You need to do strict permanent alterations in diet pattern for complete recovery.

Prognosis is good. Do not worry. There is slight meniscus and tendon inflammation. Chondromalacia patellae means undersurface of patella (knee cap) is inflamed. Just take anti inflammatory medicines, do ice fomentation (3 times per day). It will take 4-6 weeks for inflammation to subside.

1. Don’t rest too much. Too much rest can weaken your muscles, which can worsen joint pain. Find an exercise program that is safe for your knees and stick with it. If you're not sure which motions are safe or how much you can do, talk with your doctor or a physical therapist.

Hi I met with an accident on april 2016. I injured my knee and foot in the process. I neglected it as a small injury. With each day progressing I started to experience more pain. My knee used to pain and my foot used to pain. I used to get cramps on my thighs. I sensed weakness totally on my legs. I consulted a doctor. The doctor advised me for a MRI scan. After seeing the report the doctor told me that I have a minor dislocation of bones near my knee due to patellar injury and I am suffering from chondromalacia patella grade 3.he advice me to a vitamin d test. By seeing the report he told me I have vitamin d deficiency and prescribed me cholecalciferol and some leg exercises. I am still not satisfied with diagnosis. The pain hasn't had vanished. I feel like a prick piercing from inside of my knee when I walk. I am confused. Please suggest me how can I recover completely Regards.
