My dr diagnose me with arithis for 3mos. i later found out i had a torn menisus and dis located knee cap. why?

U need to ask the --: Doc yourself, but its quite possible you have all the 3 together. Most people get arthritis after 40-50 yrs of age. It can earlier if there had been a severe injury to a joint 10-15 yrs previously. All these 3 do occur together, altho the knee cap subluxation is more common in females.
