I am still considering arthroscopic surgery to remove scar tissue, but am waiting till new year for insurance
However someone mentioned cold laser therapy as being helpful. Does anyone know about this?
I am also planning on getting deep tissue massage to help with scar tissue and surrounding muscles, etc.

@mylynn I tried deep tissue massage and ASTYM to try and address the scar tissue non-surgically. I got no improvement from either in the long run. The deep tissue massage was helpful on the day I had it done- as long as I limited weight hearing. The ASTYM just bruised my entire leg and the practioner recommended stopping as it wasn’t helping
