Ouch. Sounds painful.

Unfortunately, cartilage does not "re-generate"...but you can promote a healthy joint by taking glucosamine sulfate and MSM nutritional supplements. These are amino acids (if I'm correct), or the building blocks of proteins in the body. They help attract blood cells and circulation to the joints.

How did you do it???
