A member asked:
Nervous about having micro fracture knee surgery; first surgery ever. what should i expect.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Surgery: Considering your age and assuming no other medical problems this will be a very low-risk surgery for you. A few days of pain and then you should get back to normal.
