Yeah. Any time you mess with a knee capsule, chronic flare-ups and pain become problems. Mrs. Idaho had a meniscus repair earlier this year and had some arthritis in the kneecap part of the capsule. Doc said that chronic flare-ups/aches were going to just be a part of her life (until it gets to a point she needs a replacement).
You could tell at this point if any arthritis has already developed from the surgery to fix it, so the fact they cleared him makes me believe that is NOT the case.
