Save your money Nikki, Glucosamine Chondroitin is of no help at all. Sure, it is what cartilage is made of, but the body does not absorb it whole. It breaks it apart and has to reassemble it in the joint.
If your diet is decent, you have more than enough building blocks to create more cartilage.
The problem is that when cartilage is denuded, there are no progenitor cells available for repair.
Your problems stem from ligamentous instability, not a lack of cartilage. If your knee "locks" you may have some loose pieces of cartilage that need to be removed by endoscopy.
