What are the three compartments of the knee?
The three compartments of the knee are the medial compartment (inner side of the knee), lateral compartment (outer side of the knee), and the patellofemoral compartment (front of the knee where the kneecap articulates with the thigh bone).
How many joints in the hip have cartilage?
The hip joint is a ball-and-socket joint that has a layer of cartilage covering both the head of the femur (thigh bone) and the acetabulum (the socket in the pelvis). So, the hip joint has cartilage in both the femoral head and the acetabulum.

What is severe chondrosis of the weight bearing aspect of the medial femoral condyle?
Severe chondrosis of the weight-bearing aspect of the medial femoral condyle refers to a significant degenerative condition affecting the cartilage on the inner part of the thigh bone where it meets the knee joint. This can result in pain, swelling, and limitations in movement, leading to reduced joint function and potentially requiring treatment such as physical therapy, medications, or in severe cases, surgery. It is important to follow the recommendations of a healthcare provider for proper management of this condition.
