Ive not had surgery yet, and I’m no expert but... In my experience in life I’ve lost quickly, except when I eat sugar. I would certainly avoid the ice cream and “treats”. Real food only and I would guess it’ll happen to your liking.

Sorry, it also hurt on the inside of my knee cap. Meaning right knee was sore on the left side. Some to the right as well occasionally.

If its any consolation I had the exact symptoms you last year. Came out of nowhere. Kneeling down, climbing stairs and going down, and bending were a painful. Hurt on the backside of my knee to the touch and when moving. Had some swelling. I’m no doctor but it could be a medial patellar retinaculum strain. I believe that’s the correct spelling of the diagnosis my orthopedist gave me. Some physical therapy and ice, ice, ice and it went away. I had to push it though and push through the fear of it hurting before it really got better. Nursing it made it worse. I thought back when I was being really lazy for a month or two, I think that’s what caused it. Hopefully that’s all your problem is but definitely get it checked out. I thought the worst but mri showed no issues except some early arthritis.
