Really helpful advice, thank you.

Great video! Very helpful information!

For 2.5 years I have been limping after walking, it started off just up hill, and now I can’t walk longer than 15 minutes without limping. I can’t kneel down, or have a dance or play with my nieces. I was told it was muscle imbalance by nhs for years and to ‘push through the pain’ including squats and walking on my limped leg, which I believe has made it worse, I was repeatedly not taken seriously. When I suggested I thought it was something else like a cartilage problem, they really made me feel like I was lying or being dramatic. I finally got fed up and went for a private mri scan last week. Turns out it’s s severe oblique meniscus medial tear and a 3.5mm cyst. I’ve been told now I will most likely need surgery 😢 I’m only 29 and haven’t played sports, only running and walking. I’m a healthy weight, and have no idea how it happened! I wish I had found out sooner and been given the correct physio, if you have any symptoms go private, don’t waste any time!

That's sad to see at such young age you are facing this. Almost same for me too but I am 39 and into sports. NHS is very slow. Unless you are on the death bed they won't take you seriously. For everything they have one solution. Paracetamol.

Very well presented. Thank you for your effort.

Very informative. Thank you.

great insight. 6months in after a tear in the medial, accompanied with severe tendinopathy and collagen loss in the patellar tendon, which combined to cause so much pain my brain shut off my quadriceps for a couple weeks while i tried to "tough it out" resulting in significant atrophy. with an ambitious pt approach using progressive loading, lots of stability and isometrics, after ems woke up the muscle fibers - i'm blessed and thankful for slow and incremental but really uplifting improvements. glad i saw an ortho who also prefers a long-range non-invasive approach, and glad i had a pt team who let me push myself hard under their supervision!!!

Thank you very much for your valuable information.

Thanks for this Will…left knee did great now right knee is painfully locking up. After a few weeks of therapy PT recommends I get MRI. He thunks it may be a stuck flap of meniscus as you describe. I was fit and active until mid March and then my left knee blew up…my whole leg, thigh to ankle turned black and was filled with fluid from complex Baker’s cyst. That lead to discovering 2-4 OA with multiple meniscus tears. Worked through in PT in 2 1/2 months doing great then right knee swelled and shooting pain and locking up. MRI in 3 weeks. Likely OA in there too so I’m wanting to avoid making it worse. If there is a loose flap does that ever properly heal? I was an avid hiker and mountain biker before this. I do have missing 2” from left leg due to motorcycle accident. I’ve done well for 68 years and never anticipated not staying active.

Please make video on Patellofemoral signs, treatment and excercises. thank you

Last November I was working in the yard, and had a tremendous pain spread across the back of the knee. I went down on the ground, grabbing my knee. ( a man came out and gave a red card to the tool I was using!). Went to the ortho clinic and was told it was torn from the bone. Had a rerooting on Dec. 1st.

tc.. I'm just 10 days into my knee issue. Gp says medial miniscus tear and whilst I don't disagree with him I'm not convinced completely (no swelling, heat or redness but pain instability and weakness) so maybe a twist or sprain without tear.

Thank you for the excellent videos. Regarding a medial meniscus root tear… Do you agree or disagree with the articles and surgeons who say pretty much every patient with MMRT who is a good candidate (not too much arthritis yet) should have the repair surgery? And not even try conservative treatment and strengthening

I am 73 years old and was just diagnosed with a meniscus tear and its going on for 3 months. I am doing some exercise for meniscus tear but it effects my ankle. My sports doctor said my ankle swelling is from the meniscus tear, because my knee swells up it drains to my ankle. My ankle tends to be more painful and annoying. My doctor recommends surgery and my knees from x-rays show they are very healthy. I do not have arthritis in my knee, I know when I had the incident, it was when I was on the trend mill and I was distracted. What are your thoughts?

Very helpful, because it is a slow heal. I’m in month 5 and feel the very first indications that things are starting to improve. When I exercise more aggressively it just sets me back, and need to start over.

Hello! I hope you are doing well. I recently got my MRI results, and it mentioned a grade 3 tear at the posterior horn of the medial meniscus. The report also states that the ACL is not adequately seen. There's no joint effusion. I'm quite worried and hesitant about surgery. Can this be fixed through physiotherapy and a knee immobilizer?

I am 68, stage 4 arthritis only in right knee, locks once a week and will become normal after a couple of hours of complete rest. I am not sure if i go for TKR.

Hi Will, I’ve just had an X-ray and my GP has said I don’t have the shock absorber! It’s worn away, she’s suggested cortisone injection for now! Only 54 so no option for a knee replacement at this point! Can you recommend anything? I’m at my wits end as I’m a very keen hiker and want to continue doing long distance hikes in the future! Thanks for all your great videos, they are so helpful 😊

Tore my meniscus in my left knee over 2 yo still as painful as ever can't afford to go private so waiting for NHS to do it's thing. HNS said I'm way down the list. Have chronic arthritis in the right knee doc said I need a replacement knee joint that was 5 year's ago, was told I will have at least another 2 to 3 year wait for that op as well. In the mean time I'm hobbling around on crutches and pain killers but living in hope that once the torys are out of office the waiting lists may finally start moving optimistically looking at 4 years from now which will make 70 yo.

I had successful surgery for my meniscus tear, after i was getting the feeling something was floating in my knee. But several times a week that floating piece would get pinched between the two bones and cause a very sharp pain in the middle of the knee joint. I had to be extremely cautious all the time. Surgery was done and in a couple days i was back to normal activities.

@chantallxvx4102

That was certainly the best solution. Nevertheless, you have to be aware that something of the meniscus has probably been cut away, the edges have been smoothed and now some of the shock absorber meniscus is missing. Lifelong stretching and strengthening muscles, good nutrition are now still in vogue if you don't want to get osteoarthritis

I have had injury 3 years now it nearly gets better after many weeks then bam the next day pain again , so frustrating, I am now experimenting with electric gardening and have researched earthing the body and have combined the two with a copper cable stuck in the ground and coiled clockwise around the leg with more turns around the knee area , 30 mins a day I find the pain reduces somewhat as an experiment it’s in early stages, I also have placed a steel cable with a magnet one end fixed magnetic north under my mattress and I find this helps also. Placing a woollen hat or scarf under the joint of the knee when lying on your back sleeping creates localised heat and this also has helped reduce pain . Crazy maybe but who cares if perhaps it works time will tell. I cycle 7 miles a day this also helps with leg motion as long as not much pressure with strong head wind or steep gradients. I find walking hurts more running impossible. I have flat feet now here is the dilemma, I had some insoles made to create better posture but part of me thinks that they inhibit the healing of the meniscus as I was born flat footed the bones and muscles grew to compensate naturally So now what to do, perhaps dispense with the insoles and see what happens.

I had a partial meninsectomy when I way 19 yrs old. It is the regret of my life. Don't do it. You can look forward to a life of pain (If you are lucky, which I wasn't, the pain may be delayed by a few years after surgery)

Great info Will! I had an arthroscopic surgical repair of a meniscus tear about 10 years ago. It was essentially painless, and the recovery was quick. Now the same problems are back. The surgeon said the next option would be removal of the meniscus. I'm not excited about that. I've had two PRP injections with fairly good results, but the improvement faded after 6 or 7 months. Is getting repeated PRP injections the best option or do you prefer hyaluronic injections or some other course? Cheers

i hated when my locked up when my knee was bent, it was a mental game over and over. always in the worst times it seemed also..

Thanks for your videos. My right knee had 'sting' playing ball and very sore for 2 weeks. Since during COVID 2020, I couldn't get surgery anyway as MRI showed "complex" tears and 'new' and 'old'. I was age 58. Good news was as you say, after ~10 months, knee got stronger with only mild pain. Bad news is 2 years lately (and more hoops/pickleball) it's been aggravated to point of any activity creates outside knee stiffness, and pain done to foot. I'm guessing tear is worse. There is also grade 3 arthritis. So question - considering another MRI, as pinching/stinging after mild exercise is painful, but ortho guys at this point just simply say "age ~60, arthritis in knee, recommend only injections, or worse replacement'. My gut tells me scope to repair and or remove 'parts' would help. Comments? (I've done chiro work, softwave, knee traction and various other exercise). I can't jog, only 'gimp' down court...6'2 200 lbs Thanks!

I was told that if I don't do the operation, I might get arthritis later in five years time but what I hear from watching your video is the other way round.....

Ive had one for 6 years and hasn't healed so i ordered a private mri to confirm my suspicions. I can still run fine though, its just hard to sit on floor in certain ways as i get achy knee after, or might hurt if leg gets jolted. I do worry about osteoarthritis in future though, but if i do get osteoarthritis, can you continue running, or will it decrease running longevity?.

Would you need surgery if a meniscal cyst is present? Is the cyst an indication that the meniscus injury is serious?

I have tears in both my knees I been in pain for a year my doctor says they don't want to do surgery I can barely walk

1. Detached meniscus 2. Osteoarthritis. Paid for private physio, MRI, orthopaedic surgeon, had ACP treatment with hyaluronic acid into the joint (x3) - only lasted 2 months and v v expensive. Surgeon not happy to go with joint replacement yet as a new one will be needed a few years down the line (he doesn’t rate partial knee replacements at all). Came across a knee brace which gets 5* from me. (Made by Thuasne a French company - Action Reliever). It is prescribable on the NHS but my GP either couldn’t or wouldn’t, wanted to send me to the Ortho dept at the hospital (how long would that all take?). Carefully measured as described on the website, ordered the brace, it arrived the next day, followed the instructions to fit it - fantastic results, a god send after 12 months of miserable pain. Because I have a formal diagnosis I didn’t pay VAT - cost about £200. Money very well spent. I enjoy walking again. The one problem I now have is I seem to have developed and allergy to the silicone doughnut around the patella but I am addressing that with cotton quilt wadding stitched inside. Probably have to pay for my own replacement in time as the NHS disappears into the private sphere (RIP) but till then I keep moving, strengthening and cut out the biscuits! (Can’t dance any more though, which is a massive loss) Really helpful films and useful exercises, thanks.

Dr, you forgot to tell people to avoid stairs when having a Meniscus tear. Especially going down. Is it ok to go up the stairs for a few steps like say 10, had an ultrasound done a month ago and went back to see my caretaker and I said this wrong I don't have pain in the lateral of the knee I have pain in the medial so we did another ultrasound and sure enough whoever read the last ultrasound was either on drugs because it was not my knee. so we did another ultrasound and it came back with my knee's results. I will go back to the clinic where I had the ultrasound done and address this mix-up. thanks for listening.

My knee has a painful popping sound..slightly pops out of place.

I’ve recently been getting pain around this muscle. Excruciating pain until it clicks then it’s ok

An awful thing, 5 mos. after I had a partial meniscectomy & loose body removable, still hurts. Believable it or not 2 mos. ago I injured my other knee. How often does that happen? X-ray shows no fracture, only mild degenerative issues. I was given a cortisone shot & 2 days later the worst pain in my life. I could not stand up on my leg, intense pain. Went to my ortho again today 3 wks. later and he found no swelling or redness, so he took another x-ray. I don't think it will show anything. He said nothing yet about a MRI. I cannot stand the pain. I ever went to the ER to see if I had a DVT. D-Dimer was neg. My ortho did give me METHYIPREDNISOLONE, for 6 days. Hope it helps. I Can't do another knee in 2024. I've had it! A nightmare injury! I'm very upset. Not again!

I injured my knee 13 wks ago. X-ray shows no fracture or significant arthritis. MRI shows complex radial medial meniscus tear, Baker's cyst, loose bodies. bone bruise & soft tissue edema. Still very extremely painful I've had knee locking & a episode of 3 hrs of stabbing pain in the medial area. Thought I would go crazy. I have a brace, compression hose, & started PT. My DR mentioned a cortisone shot & then surgery if not better. Just an awful, painful injury, and no easy solution.

Hi i got surgery recently at 22, could I ask you some questions? I’m really worried about my knee in the long-term

You may have minimal damage and have no improvement after a year, but that should not mean surgery as the outcome of surgery can mean major limitations.

You should've talked about meniscus repair surgery too😮 because that's good right obv menisectomy is bad but what about a repair surgery

Me knee gave way on 2/4/23 with extreme pain without warning, I have had both scraped around 14 years ago & they have been fine. I went for a mri scan & this is the report........Intact lateral meniscus & cruciate ligaments. There is a horizontal cleavage tear through the posterior horn of the medial meniscus contacting the superior & interior articulating margin. No displacement is seen but the medial meniscus is extruded. There is full-thickness medial tibiofemoral compartment chondral loss with articulating bony margin marrow oedema & subchondral cystic change. Intact lateral tibiofemoral compartment cartilage, patellar tendon, extensor mechanism & retropatellar cartilage with subtle surface fraying & incomplete fissuring within the apex. No frank osteochondral lesion seen. No fracture present. Small volume joint effusion. End of report. I am still in pain & can not put any compression on the knee without pain, I walk with a limp & dis comfort. What sort of treatment will I need? I am 58 years old & would like to return to how I was before all this happened. Thanks Steven.
