Does your knee pop/crack? Are you worried that you will get arthritis because of playing basketball? 

In this episode Marco discusses with Dr. Ugo Ihekweazu Hip and Knee replacement surgeon at Texas Orthopedic Hospital. We talk about what is the reason behind why your knee pops/cracks. We also dive in deep on what places a person at risk for knee arthritis. Dr. Ihekweazu talks about why a knee replacement is needed and how it is performed. We also talk about meniscus issues and how it may increase your risk for arthritis down the line. The biggest key take away from this podcast is that continuing to play basketball will increase you risk for injury however it will decrease your risk for arthritis due to being active.
