What could i expect from plica removal ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain relief: First and foremost need to make sure this is cause of actual pain often times this becomes the garbage pail diagnosis. It is typcially a snapping pain over the inner aspect of knee. If truelly cause of pain, surgery to cut the plica should alleviate pain.
