As someone in my late 20s with cartilage damage in both my knees and back due to sports, this progress can’t come soon enough. I miss running a lot (and miss not having constant back pain), and it’s confounding to me why something that appears so simple, cartilage repair, has made almost no real progress over decades (I know it’s not simple). I keep following the research and hoping new discoveries will eventually lead to something tangible.

Doesn't seem to be any tangible methods in this article, but I've heard some promising stories of successful stem cell treatments.
