A member asked:
There appears to be mild medial joint space loss bilaterally. what does this mean ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Medial joint space: You are born with a specific amount of joint space and through aging, wear and tear, arthritis, etc, that space can lessen. Mild means just a little, and medial means to the inside of the joint near your body. Have the Dr. clinically correlate theses findings with your physical exam to see if you need any treatment.
