PT may still help: Even though you are active, PT still may help, as the therapists can help to direct you in some correct ways to move for your activities, putting less strain on your knee and possibly give you some strengthening exercises which also may help. Depending on what you are active with, you may put putting strain on certain areas and just changing some of the above may help. Hope it does!
