Knee Osteoarthritis
I have severe arthritis in my right knee. I'm a 24 year old former college football player. I want to know if it is possible to have bone spurs in the knee shaved down. I want to get stem cells injected into my knee but I don't think it will be as effective if the bone spurs in my knee continue to limit the motion in my leg.
