First thing the doctor did ( at my required back to work physical ) was tell me to do a deep knee bend " all the way down ". I had not gone down that far since the injury and thought - well no matter how much this hurts fake it . Fortunately it did not hurt but - what a ridiculous thing for a " Do No Harm " medical professional to do . I'm guessing the company had her do that

Been struggling for 6 mths , I am 54. Physio helped after 6 mths of physio I stopped quad excercises you showed as that was suggested and I found irritated my knee. it was better after 6 mths but then my physio added squats to my excercises telling me to go down as far as I could and if I felt pain transfer weight to other leg! … and then stretching in a lunge to stretch inner thigh! I stupidly tried both and 1 week later I felt a sharp pain in my other leg and have been off it for ten days due to pain and swelling. X rays that were ordered before my most recent injury show no arthritis so seems I had a damaged meniscus all along and now have one in my other knee,🥲 no faith n my nhs physio anymore. I will start your excercises when swelling goes down. Such a shame nhs won’t do mri for these injuries without a request from orthopaedic, when waiting times are 6 mths on average. Thank you for your videos. Gives me hope.😊

I am 82, have played golf for over 60 years, used to be a jogger, and was active going to the gym from 1985 until 2020 when Covid shut that down. I recently have had severe pain in the right knee. Saw two orthopedic surgeons, had an MRI. In the medial meniscus I have diffuse intrasubstance degeneration with a horizontal flap tear involving the undersurface of the posterior horn extending into the posterior aspect of the body segment, and an associated 0.5 cm flap interior to the body in the medial gutter. In the lateral meniscus, diffuse intrasubstance degeneration throughout with free edge fraying and small horizontal tear of the mid body segment. So no traumatic tears like a bucket handle. But a great deal of pain. I could do arthroscopic surgery to smooth and shave the meniscii, but have opted not to because I am seeing increasing comments by orthopedic surgeons that while such surgery is indicated for traumatic tears, it is not considered to be of much use for people over 70. Removal of meniscal tissue can thin the meniscus and separation between femur and tibia and lead to osteoarthritis. Conserving meniscal tissue is considered more important. I will see a physio therapist, but it takes six weeks to make an appointment where I live in Montgomery County, Maryland. Thus the advice of professionals like yourself has been extremely useful. I have watched many hours. I have also watched many hours of professional medical lectures on how to read an MRI of the knee. In addition, I have read several serious medical research reports on advances in possible ways to regrow and regenerate meniscal tissue. It is difficult because the menisci are actually very complex structures, not just some kind of rubber like pad akin to a door stop, with three zones of vascularization, and different cellular composition in each zone. I have seen the extension exercise you caution against in almost every therapy video. You mention strengthening the quadriceps. One therapist placed particular emphasis on strengthening the VMO muscle (Vastus Medialis Oblique), one of the four muscles in the quadriceps that helps stabilize the knee, noting that it can begin to atrophy in just 24 hours from lack of use. Would you recommend doing the exercise to activate the VMO and other quadriceps muscles but starting with a larger roll under the knee so that the leg can be partially extended but not full locked? Alternatively, I think one can sit on the edge of a firm bed or a massage table and let the lower leg hang down and then raise it but not extend it fully. Your 70% squats also activate the VOM muscle, do they not? Pain is also a problem. It is the worst pain I have ever had, and I have undergone two dislocated shoulders in high school football, a pilonidal cyst operation (where removing the packing after it healed was hell but just for a minute), a colon cancer operation, and a quadruple heart bypass operation. It becomes depressing and tires you out. I did not want to have cortisone shots as I fear they can weaken tendons. I don't think that physical therapy deals with pain, only with regaining strength and mobility. No one seems to give any advice on how to reduce the pain except to take a NSAID and I use only Tylenol. I see you have another video on knee pain so will check. Finally, and I apologize for the length but maybe my comments and questions can help others suffering the same thing. I am desperate to return to playing golf. That does involve some rotational force on the knee, as you well know. I have begun to read and study some ways to modify the swing to lessen compression and rotation forces on the knees and allow the feet to turn rather than being planted in the ground with cleats. I think biomechanical experts in university and other athletic departments are beginning to look at this more closely. Ironically, I have in fact gone back three times to an indoor practice bay with launch monitor and found that swinging a club cause little or no pain, certainly less than walking or getting up after sitting in a chair for a long time. Perhaps there is hope.

Have you investigated Prolotherapy, and specifically, Platelet Rich Plasma therapy which is the base Prolotherapy solution with your own platelets spun out of your blood and added. Prolotherapy is a sugar solution with a numbing agent added (like lidocaine or such). They inject it into ligaments and tendons and your body reacts by laying down collagen, this tightening up the joint. They can even take stem cells out of your fat, and add that to it also. Helps very much with pain relief, even arthritis. Not just knees, but anywhere. Something to investigate. Generally I do not think it is covered by Insurance. But it healed my knee in one session, missed one day of work, instead of a 6 week surgery, which may or may not fix the issue.

I am checking in on last weeks video on meniscal tear. IT WORKED, l had to make my old dog a step to get in the car. Twice a day l had to move it, put it away and repeat once or twice more. EVERY time l moved this damn step with my foot, 90% my left foot…..and that was the knee in question. Only eight days in and my knee is great. I would shuffle the step alongside the open door, then shuffle it back out of the way, all the time using my foot. I thank god l watched that particular video as that day my knee was in dire straights. Thank you Will. I still can’t believe l was doing something so simple yet it was also so harmful.

So glad I watched this! I got kicked in the R. knee by one of my horses over 20 years ago, just did the RICE routine, no xray or anything and it seemed to heal ok even though it was hugely swollen. About 10 days ago I tore the anterior medial meniscus in that same knee just planting and twisting going down some stairs (there was a loud crack and intense pain) and I suspect more damage was done to my knee than I suspected at the time. Did the RICE routine again and saw a physiotherapist 3 days later and one of the exercises he recommended was the first one you said not to do, so I'm going to see if I can do other exercises to strengthen my quads. I also have patella baja and am having knee cap pain (it's sticking) so it's been tricky trying to find exercises to do that help and don't make things worse. I've started short workouts on my stationery bike and am walking pretty well with just a little pain, but my knee is clicking a lot and still feels a bit unstable, especially going downhill so I'm just using walking poles and being careful. Thanks for your great video, I like how short and clear your instructions are, and that you also make it clear that each case is different and some of those exercises might be ok in some instances. I'm going to share the link to this video to my friends, as meniscus tears are so common in my age group.

The flat foot exercise was given to me - ie turning the sole of the foot to face the medial, using a band or cable. Seated - hovering the foot above ground - very hard to avoid slightly twisting the knee. Just one example of the exercises given to me by the NHS physio, one or some of which aggravated my injured miniscus. I've eliminated them all and will build up from 0; the build up part of this is thanks to this video. Also, the 'weak glutes' assumption is a bit of a big assumption. I'm a life long heavy lifter with squats and leg press, and in my case the squat very much targets my glutes. Having said that I hadn't squatted in years. I will do them (for glutes) just to cover this. I'm not sure I need to only go 70 degrees. If parallel to the ground is 0 and straight legs are 90 according to your demonstration, then perhaps 30-40 (as opposed to a deep squat which as deep as thry can go is 0 for some and - 30 for others) might suit me.

How can you tell whether you aggravate a meniscus tear? If I carry a heavy weight and the force of weight is pushing through femur to meniscus to the tibia, then the presence of swelling and pain afterwards even the next day may be proof positive that you have aggravated your meniscus tear. If I do a quad set or quad set with leg raise then the presence of swelling indicates that you aggravated your meniscus tear. If you a deep squat or lateral lunge then the presence of swelling indicates aggravation of meniscus tear. I can’t do a mri or x ray to see the pinching of meniscus. But would the lack of swelling indicate that you have not pinched your meniscus to an extent that causes impedance of meniscus repair?

Is stretching hamstring ok with meniscus tear or bad knees?
@blackcatsarenopussies9 ай бұрын
Don't lock your knees. Keep your knees bent and lean forward. Sort of a Romanian Deadlift without weights. Hinge from hips and touch your knees or your tibial with your palms, that should give plenty of stretch . With bent knees you will stretch both hamstrings and glutes. Let me know how it worked. Suggest doing repetitions, much like a dynamic stretch instead of a holding stretch especially with cold muscles

is it normal to lose all of your quad strength with this injury? i cannot even lift my knee up. i can't ride a bike.

Yes it is normal but you'll gradually build back your strength however, based on my experience, your quad muscle on the injured side will never be as big as the other one.
