A member asked:
They say there is nothing i can do to a post injury swollen disfigured joint after 9 years will this joint keep growing it's already double it's size?

Due: To the injury of the joint arthritic changes hit this joint early and hard. I recommend therapy on the joint to keep as much ROM and use as you can. But not a lot can be done to reverse things. Good luck
