Osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis in the knee. It is a degenerative, "wear-and-tear" type of arthritis that occurs most often in people 50 years of age and older, although it may occur in younger people, too. In osteoarthritis, the cartilage in the knee joint gradually wears away.
The 6 knee ligaments which might get affected are the menisci, collaterals and cruciate ligaments. If you have chronic knee pain in both of your legs then rule out osteoarthritis or other joint problems like Rheumatoid arthritis and other systemic diseases. Go for an X-ray and follow up with an orthopedician for a proper diagnosis. Take care!

Not sure if they're the same, but the doc has to put down an ICD-9 code on their "super bill" to get reimbursed by insurance. I'm not saying he'd make something up but will get as close as he can on the ICD-9 code. Don't read too much into it. Ask your doctor to clarify, don't be afraid to ask these questions.
