Hi there!

Well, without a clinical evaluation it would be difficult to comment on the situation. Management at this stage would depend on the severity/ location of the condition and the associated symptoms. While conservative management is preferred in mild-moderate cases; reconstruction surgery/ prosthesis may possible options available in severe cases. However this would need to be discussed in detail with the treating orthopedician/ neurologist, after a complete evaluation
Hope this is helpful.

Take care!
