A member asked:
Is one at greater risk of future knee damage if they previously had a partially torn pellar retinuculum and recovered thru pt treatment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sort of: The retinaculum will have healed less tight than b4 the subluxation so the probability of another subluxation is higher than b4.
