I succumbed injuries to my right knee in an accident in July 1999. As a result I had 2 ligament tears(MCL + MM) which have healed by now. However, even after 5 months my knee used to pain terribly with very slight strain and so I had to undergo an arthroscopy in December 1999. During this it was found that the cartilage between my femur and tibia had become soft and part of it has come out(which was shaved during the surgery) due to the injury and there was no medicine for it. Till November 2000 it used pain like before. Then I started Reiki treatments which have helped me a lot. However, I would like to know whether I can do any more treatments along with this to quicken the recovery process.
