Please suggest me any remedies thru which I can restore this back as I don t need to go for surgery at this early stage
[|AI|]  Hello, At your age thinning of cartilage is not a common condition. If you are having knee pain then most common reason at your age can be overweight and lack of exercise. You may start exercises, vitamin D deficiency can lead to knee pain but for osteoarthritis, it is not an established reason. You may do warm fomentation with water bag over your knee with exercises for at least 3 times a day. There are some supplements which can also be helpful like glucosamine, Chen Chat Doctor.  Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
