I have some serious medial knee pain. Like haven't ran in 7 months painful, i feel the pain is shutting down my vmo. Saw a surgeon(military) he said it was medial plica he palipated it and it produced pain. I also feel some tightness when i do a quad stretch in that same area. I feel a little roughness on the back of my patella. I am in physical therapy now. My question is how can i be sure the surgeon knows how to remove this correctly? What questions are the questions to ask..I've heard this is a simple procedure but it can easily be butchered.
