I had my meniscus surgery 4 days ago. Since my doctor didn’t give me any specific exercises, I dug up this video. It is very helpful!

I just had knee Arthroscopy a week ago. The only way I could’ve done those exercises on the first day, is if someone actually did them for me. The second day the pain was worst because the nerve blockers were wearing off. I had to have help getting in and out of bed for the first 3-4 days. It does get better as the days go by. I just take my time.

Ditto to everything all of you reported. I’m barely managing, I even avoid the steps as much as possible and it’s been ten days for me. I don’t want to be on pain meds unnecessarily.

I had surgery almost 3 weeks ago, I was released with a paper saying how to walk and to ice, no more! I went this morning searching to find help as I have issues like some pain and stiffness and found this video. I am surprised at the information I didn’t get at the release from the hospital!! Thank you for this video, I was desperate for help, and I hope that these exercises will still help me, as I am having discomfort and felt helpless with a very tight knee. I was also never told about elevation of my leg and so on…. Thank you and God bless!

No PT?! That is VERY suspicious and does not seem right at all. I had a meniscectomy (trimming the torn part basically) and I have been in PT for months. I would imagine with an actual repair, you definitely should have gotten PT! Sometimes these surgeons say silly stuff. I know your comment was 4 yrs ago but for anyone finding this in 2023, GO TO PT. It is life changing and essential to your recovery!!!

Same to me. They repaired my meniscus and just told me to ice elevate and keep the brace on. They only told me about ankle circles. But none of these other exercises. I'm going on 3 weeks after surgery and still have swelling. All this time I thought the knee was still to fragile to do these other exercises so soon.

I’m grateful for your video. Meniscus surgery a week and a half ago. My surgical nurse gave me standard exercises to do, but on paper with images. No clarity about how to do them or gradually add a new exercise as days went on. Too much hip muscle strain left me with irritated hip muscles. Your video gave me a clear option, and I’m feeling no hip strain. Feeling less knee pain. Thank you.

Good video. My doctor never told me any of those. He just asked me to be back at his clinic after 2 weeks. It is 3 weeks post op and ive been watching exercises of youtube. At first, i couldnt straigthen my leg but 3 days after the surgery ive been trying to extend it. Now i can fully extend. My problem now is i can only bend my knee 135°. Ive been working it out though. Still on crutches, cant walk without it as the op spot is still painful.

We live in Portugal and I just had an athroscopic surgery to right knee. We had an amazing experience but the post-op instructions are in Portuguese and are slightly daunting.

This is very helpful video, Thank you. Today I have 4th day after my Meniscus Muscle Arthroscopy Surgery. I will follow same before I will see the doctor.

I’ve had five knee scopes . Filth one just recently. Started leg raises immediately after surgery. Started immediately trying to put some pressure on the knee with use of crutches. On third day short walks in the house being careful to turn cautiously. Ankle rotation, slightly bending knee as pain allows. Then rehab at a local office. The quicker you start exercise’s the better. This helps stretch the muscles and keep them working properly. You will see it makes things easier.

How is your knee today?

Thank you for the great video. Doctors in this neck o' the woods tell you nothing, not even to ice and elevate. Just medicine a crutches. It's rhe pits. I'll to do these exercises daily, like you said. Would like to know when to start on stationery bike.

On day 4 after meniscus surgery, tears repaired on both sides of my knee. Only instructions I was given was to elevate and ice and use crutches, but allowed to put weight on the leg immediately if tolerated. I’m 71 years old, I don’t think crutches are very safe, instead I was using a walker with front wheels which is much more stable. I was allowed to take the wrapping off my knee after 48 hours and shower, my knee doesn’t look very swollen and I’m able to walk without the walker. However, my knee is quite stiff and sore. My return appointment with the surgeon isn’t for two weeks. I had the left knee done two years ago, and followed up with a lot of physical therapy. I’m going to try the gentle exercise this time around. I think they will help me to progress faster.

...Thank you for making this, very helpful!!

Just had surgery 2weeks ago I’m a teacher and I’m really ready to get back to my students. I can stand and walk without crutches but my doctor has not took me out the long leg wrap and put me in my knee brace.

Hi All I'm a Ship Surveyor and while crawling inside ballast tank I twisted my left knee while under load, it was minimal but the next few days I get pain and my knee was swelling. From MRI à meniscus tear appear on the white part of the meniscus. Now after 6 weeks of rest my knee is getting better but question is can I still doing my crawling and climbing on the ship? Or is better to be on the safe side and reduce my work activities?

I’ve had my surgery yesterday and I’ve been doing some stretches and feet circles. I am unable to bend my knee as I’m still bandaged up and my knee just won’t listen to me.

7-17-19. Very shortly I will be undergoing partial meniscectomy for a very large bucket handle tear. The injury occurred 3-15-19. In those past 4 months, I have been doing very extensive/very intense home pt with particular focus on the featured exercises and quad strengthening. However, I have been unable to achieve proper quad strength, it’s not even close to pre injury status/contra lateral side. I can not hyperextend! Now I’m faced with the proposition of going into surgery with extensive quad weakness as well as ROM deficiency. I couldn’t get these things back in the last 4 months despite very diligent efforts. How will I ever get that back after surgery? Perhaps never. Please feel free to share.

@@mikeray353. Had surgery on 10-17-19. The surgeon removed all of my meniscus and did not address my 70% torn ACL. Surgery was supposed to last 40 min. It took him 1hour and 40 min. I should have never gone through surgery, it lessened me. I have some nerve damage and I needed a cane in order to walk for two years after surgery. Today I can barely walk unaided. What started out as an injured left knee, has turned out to be an extremely painful right hip and flank as a result of my bad gait. My suggestion to anyone in a similar predicament would be to act quickly (not haphazardly) and decisively so as to not allow for further injury due to compensatory movements. If PT is an option I would find the best and give it all I’ve got and then concede to surgery as a measure of last resort and if happens to pan out that way, again, do some homework and find the very best doctor. Mine was a unique situation, most people would not have to deal with a nightmare like mine. I’m sorry to hear about your knee, I wish you good health and happiness!

@@emilialigorio4889 i am as active as they get , plus i fish lobster for a living so my knees are important when lifting 100 pound traps while walking on a moving floor ,,,, so i was worried that i couldn't fish anymore or be active like i was,,but for a good week or 2 after surgery i just rested alot while doing minimal stuff while in my bed, Leg raises , and knee flexion ,,then after that 2 week period i hit the stationary bike to improve my quad muscles but more importantly improve knee flexibility,,,and gradually when you feel you can better move the knee i increased then tension on the bike. i walked 2 times a day also. Do not loose hope because it's like all of a sudden after a month of this your knee will feel like 60% better over night, then from there it is easier to increase the tension on the stationary bike. Next thing you know you will feel great again

I had mine done a week ago. Have a lot of stiffness for sure

nice explained

I have dislocated my knee and got a cast for my left whole leg. I have been told to do strengthening exercises which involves lifting my legs a bit while in sleeping position. But the cast feels too heavy. I cant lift my injured leg an inch, while I can easily lift my other leg. What do I do.

Did In aurtgoscopic surgery biopsy is mandatory?

I could not do all that. Did this lady really have an arthroscopy?

The arthroscopy ended up speeding up the arthritis that was already in the knee. One yr later, I had a knee replacement. It has has been 7 weeks post and the pain is real. I go to physical therapy twice a week. Swelling and pain is crazy. But doctor says will totally heal in 1 yr. But sending me back to work in 3 months post OP. I hope all is well for your knee.

I had done my knee open biopsy 25 days before... Last day my stitches were removed and now i am not able to bend my leg. Seems my knee is locked... Now i am trying to go through these exercise but my surgical part is not yet full healed and doing these exercises makes me feel very much pain at the surgical part... Now what should i do for unlocking of knee.. Should i continue to practice these exercise or wait. And if i practice these exercises... Is there any danger of infection at the surgical part or it is ok to do.. Hoping to get a response frm uhh as soon as possible... Thank you🥰

I had Infection over the KNEE and the Infection was cleared by doing a Surgery a month ago. After doing the Surgery, I lost the Muscle which is at the upper leg and the muscle on the KNEE became very strong enough where I'm unable to bend my Leg. When ever I'm trying to bend my Leg, I'm feeling like something was holding the upper and lower leg and was paining. After completing my surgery, I was supposed to take Bed rest for a fortnight. Till that fortnight doctor didn't suggested or ordered me to do exercises. After that fortnight, Doctor suggested for Physiotherapy. I'm attending the Therapy sessions from the last 15 days. Till now also when I'm attending the Therapy sessions, I'm unable to bend my self after returning to home. Need your tips related to Exercise Steps and I've to move as like earlier....Thank you

How many reps ànd sets?

It's been more than 2 months since I had my knee operation, but i still have to recover my full range of motion even if i am doing physical therapy session. How come it's taking this long?

Nice exercises..but im soo tired and lazy..i love sleep and doing nothing..need painkillers..good food and just taking very very slowly care of my knee..god bless ya all knee friends:D

I had my surgery on tues 7/11 and Im still having a hard time bending my knee. Had PT the next day. Then had PT done on friday which i worked it very good but swollen the nexy day an still hatd to bend. I cut all mu ligamnets an a artery due to an accident. Surgery was also for a force bend. Still having issues. Any advice??

Doc which exercise i can do after two weeks of surgery? Please give me a response

Most of the issue comes from the swelling of the knee that limits everything. I am in y fifth day . I walk but i am limping , I can’t contract my right muscle , I have swelling on my quad and limits my muscle to work when I walk. Cortisone shot is a miracle and it will help with swelling and pain tremendously. I have had it 2 years ago and it does take off the swelling in 12 hours to zero swelling.
