i had a sports injury 3 months ago and my knee wasn't getting better - acute pain, locking at times, grinding, catching. one orthopedic just prescribed neproxin - bad for my system - started PT and some exercises help for a little while as if though it is a lube job but invariably after a day or two dull pain comes back. went to a new orthopedic and be ordered and MRI which revealed patellofemoral arthropathy. cartilage ulcer medial trochlea, capsulisynovitis and myxoid change of medial meniscus. no loose bodies small effusion

knee hasn't gotten much better - still cracking and catching and dull pain especially at night. will this knee ever get better ?? whats the prognosis ? should i continue with PT?
