I was just laying on the bed. Then I sat back on my knees folded. And shifted a little. Then I tried to stretch my legs out to lay down again but my right leg was like locked and pain was on lateral side below the knee . I wasn't able to do anything So I slept that way and in The sleep I tried and it somehow went back to normal in morning. Sorry for such long and weird explaination . But is this also meniscus tear. It was first in my life and my knees are not painful at all .My knees are good I think.

You are great!!

When bending the knee I can feel a tight strecth that's really scary.. so my movements are limited..

I hurt my knees after walking on sand on the beach, it's been 10 months already, but I am getting healthier now slowly.

All exercises causes a little pain one more than the other. I found out I have a medial meniscus . I got this for 4 weeks now. I ordered a knee brace and wear it during the day. It helps a lot because it's supporting my knee. I have the brace with the double aluminium alloy hinged system. It works great for me and my knee is feeling better . I had difficulties walking but after wearing this brace for 1 week it feels significantly better! When I start walking , standing up or going up and down the stairs I feel a little pain but after moving around for a bit I can feel the pain fading away. This tells me it's healing. I thought I just leave a message in the hope that it's useful for someone out there. Thnx for this very informative video!

Thank you very much for the wonderful tips for diagnosis. I had a knee injury, almost 3 years back while playing volleyball.

I tried to play cricket but it hurt my knee sometimes (running) so I stopped playing. Do you have any suggestion for exercise or treatment? Thanks a lot.

[@krnekimiskl]

Just do phisiotherapy exercise

[@virtual_intel]

Go get it seriously checked out. My wife just tore her meniscus and had to have surgery. It was torn at the root. That pain you feeling could be bone rubbing on bone because of not having much meniscus left to absorb shock to your knees while running etc… Go to the best Orthopedic Surgeon you can find. Good luck! He or she will get you to take a MRI of your knee in question.

thank you for the video!! didn't really experience any knee pain until i did the standing up rotations with the deeper squat. if anything it brought me peace of mind!! i've been driving myself insane. about a month ago, i went on a long run in the mountains (i was on vacation and thought might as well run to sightsee) - steep terrain is not usual for me, the most i do at home is climb 1 floor up the stairs so i'm not surprised that i got injured, and since then the pain has kind of eased up but still feels tender and sharp when i put weight on it or try to do anything more than walk for 10 minutes (and sometimes even less...), feels like my tendons are snapping into place to support any of the movement in my right leg... for now, my bet is on bursitis and jumper's knee 🤷‍♀️ luckily i'm getting a scan soon but at least it brings me peace of mind knowing i *probably* don't have a meniscus tear, or at the very least not a big one and will be back moving soon.

[@iamhollywood555]

Not sure if this will get answered but figured I’d try. On Sunday (8 days ago) I bent down to be by my daughter doing an activity at a table. When I went to get up from the squatted position I couldn’t. I gathered myself and focused and was able to get up. Didn’t hear any popping or feel anything. And when I got up I was fine. No pain or discomfort. Following morning (Monday) I had some discomfort in my left knee. I have experienced this in past every so often where it’s uncomfortable and very slightly painful, and causes me to walk with a limp for a few days as it hurts to walk normally when knee bends behind. Usually clears up in a few days. Never prohibited me from putting on pangs or socks or shoes etc. This time, Tuesday I woke up(2) days after the only thing I can think of that would’ve caused this (squatting by daughter) and the pain was considerably worse. I couldn’t pick my leg up to get out of bed. I couldn’t bend it more than 5 degrees. Needed assistance with socks/shoes etc bc I could bend leg to get them on. Walked way more gingerly and with a limp. And had to figure how to get in car bc I couldn’t get leg bent to get in. I saw a doctor who did an X-ray and said it was osteoarthritis. However, it made no improvement and got worse in certain situations so I went to see an orthopedic doctor. This was height of my pain and even getting on exam table was painful. Then couldn’t even sit straight up bc when I did pain shot down my leg. Same when I was driving, it was super uncomfortable and painful. He said it seems like meniscus bc the physical exams I wasn’t able to do due to resistance from pain. I used heat on it Tuesday and Wednesday and didn’t seem to do anything big make it feel more stiff. Switched to ice Thursday and it seemed to help. Since Thursday I have seen improvements in my knee. Less pain when trying to bend it and regaining some mobility. Can’t bend it all the way without some sort of pain or resistance with very minimal pain. At the worse I’ve been able to hold my weight on the leg. Rotate while standing on injured leg. Only issue has been bending it. My question is, would a meniscus or even acl injury, improve within a week like mine has? Or could it truly be the initial diagnosis of osteoarthritis? Im 42 bug doc who saw arthritis in X-ray said it’s more than she was expecting for someone my age. I have MRI scheduled but would like to better prepare myself for what it’ll find. I’m just confused bc I definitely thought meniscus bc of the lack of improvement for few days. But then the improvements I’ve seen have been drastic. Went from not being able to get in car without crying or laying in passenger seat to allow clearance for leg, to being able to bend it more (not fully yet) and not needing my wife to tie shoes or put brace on or socks etc. I thought if it was something like a meniscus or acl that it wouldn’t improve like it has the last 3 days. And maybe it is just the arthritis. any advice and information would be great appreciated. Oh and also, I’ve had no issue with straightening leg. I can straighten with no problem. Actually provides some Relief at times

My knees have been cracking since I was 10. I am now 21. At first it was one knee but now it’s both. Every time I go up or down the stairs my knees makes a cracking noise which is embarrassing because it is loud. Whenever I sit down too long they hurt when I go to stretch them out which is why I try to avoid having my knees bent for very long.

[@eldontyrell4361]

Do you have flat feet and/or pronates ankles or anything like that? Do you have duck feet that point out sidewards? I have these and my knees click when going up and down stairs, my right leg clicks if I extend my leg fully and again when I move my leg back. There’s also tonnes of exercises NOT really involving the knee that I don’t feel good about doing as it makes an almighty pop in the outside of my right knee, such exercises include single leg deadlifts, no clue why that produces such a sensation and sound but squatting which actually bends the knee, doesn’t. Mid 20’s, male, has this for a few years. I think my flat feet caused it, and squatting made it accelerate. I haven’t done anything with it except some gentle flexibility stuff for like 2 years, and it never went away. No pain during clicking, but if I do anything (by accident) that does need the knee to work, the following day my knee hurts.

I don’t lunge with any dumbells anymore because every single time I do I injure this area. I then have to “nurse it for days” until it gets better. I used to call it ‘twisting’ my knee(kind of like you would twist an ankle). I modify and just lunge with only body weight now. Not worth getting injured over.

[@toneandtighten]

Sounds like you're doing it right, Blue September! Lunges put a lot of stress on the knee and the menisci. Have you tried a "reverse" or "step back" lunge? Those are typically better tolerated with knee pain. Good luck and thanks for commenting!

Yeah I used to have a torn meniscus that was a major cause of aggravation as well as lots of low grade pain, And after dealing with it for several years, I went in and had surgery to correct the tear , A part of my meniscus was rubbing up against my knee joint which was causing my problem, The surgeon went in with a scope and trimmed off the little piece that was rubbing up against my knee joint and that removed the irritation from within my knee joint, It was summertime when I had that surgery, When I awoke from the surgery my doctor said that I could use my legs as normal, Just don’t overdo it until my knee heals, So four days after my knee surgery I went out and mowed my yard in the hot summer sun while wearing the hospital bandage wrapped around my knee, My knee didn’t hurt from the surgery, It did feel weird because they dislocated my knee joint for the surgery in order to insert the scopes, Other than feeling weird in my knee, The Areas around the holes were numb, But my doctor said that was normal until the nerves grew back and that it was just going to take some time for the regrowth ; Eventually the sensation returned to those areas , The numbness was unusual, I only noticed the lack of sensation in those areas when I would press or touch the surgical site , Just weird; It took a whole year before my knee returned to normal and I could run and jump around on it just the same way as my unaffected knee ; I never missed any work after my surgery, Now everything is perfectly normal and fine , Not to mention that I’m pain free 👍 I had only wish that I had done this surgery several years before; Peace out everyone and stay healthy 👍

Have had the same knee injury for about 6 months swollen, bruised, and pain. Been to the doctors multiple times ran x-rays and MRI and found nothing. Physical therapist even thought it was meniscus but sounded like he couldn't say it was. They say its possible an imbalance of the muscles. I been doing the exercises for awhile at one point it locked up like it was doing and had one big pop and was fine for a week or two then back to the same pain. I don't know what to do at this point

[@dr.anuragsportsphysiotherapist]

Did you get your uric acid levels checked?

[@ConstructiveMinds100]

Sometimes it is too much excercises and not enough stretching that create tightness. Plus. Your shoes can be a culprit. Right well balanced diet also helps. If you eat on regular bases any sweets, cheaps from supermarket, the food robs you from nutrients. I hope I helped a bit.

I injured my knee while running last month. The pain has improved and there’s almost no pain at all. However, my knee still doesn’t flatten or close all the way and that still causes me to limp, even though I’m in NO PAIN at all. I do still run, but my pace has slowed down and I have to wear a knee sleeve. My knee isn’t as strong as it was before I got injured because it doesn’t close, which is frustrating because I rarely have any pain, and when I do, it only lasts for a minute at most. I’ve been doing core excercising and stretching everyday, and my knee still doesn’t close or straighten out when I stand still. I went to a doctor a few days after injuring my knee and the doctor said I had Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome, but now I don’t have anymore pain. It’s just that, my knee hasn’t regained the same functionality as it did before I injured it. I researched that it could be a torn meniscus.

[@pumpingiron4759]

I had a funny situation. This happened while I was asleep on my left side with my right leg on left one. When I started to turn straight, my left leg below the knee kind off stayed still while my hip and thigh moved. I've been having funny pain in or behind my knee at times. Plus there is clicking at outer side of my left knee.

Just watching this I think my Medial Meniscus in my left knee is the problem. Everything lines up perfect to this video. To me It feels like a moderate level 2 sprain near the surface of the inside of the knee that radiates about 4 inches up and down from that spot in the knee. If I sit it gets real painful and tight. If I keep on my feet and loosen it up then the entire area throbs in pain and I regret it.

I went to a doctor, who did some manual testing and didn’t find anything. She said I should go to physiotherapy and we go from there. I went once to the physiotherapist and was not convicted of her. My pain is somehow behind the knee. I feel a strong pain if I bend my knee, hold the tibia and try to stretch the knee against the resistance. Without resistance I can stretch the knee without problem. Concerned Becker Cyst: i don’t see a clear swelling behind the knee, but my wife says there is something. What do you think is my problem? I will go again to the doctor and tell her I need an MRI. Do you agree with my plan? Thanks a lot for the video! I am subscribed, of course 😊

[@blessyourheart2784]

I had an injury in school in 8th grade where my knee cap dislocated in a twist with full weight on the leg. My leg then hit the wall, knocking the knee cap back into place. After a month of swelling and crutches they did an MRI and said the bone on the outer side of the knee looked to be hairline fracture. They recommended physical therapy or stretches. My mom could pay for physical therapy and wait to get reimbursed. I was left to do stretches but they never fixed the problem. I often had my quads tighten and pull up my knee cap and something pinch bellow my knee cap causing severe pain. I often lost stability with weather changes. A couple years ago I asked my doctor to check my knee as I had started working out and running and it caused problems in my knee and low back. He did an X-ray (I was 32 years old then). In the X-ray he could see inflammation and that my knee cap was in an abnormal tilt. He recommended 800 mg of ibuprofen daily. (Which I knew was unsafe so I did not follow) I worked out my inner and outer leg muscles and that has helped some but it is not fixed it. Thanks to this video I know for sure my Meniscus was torn and I am upset that I spent so many years in pain and unable to exercise as I like. I also cannot afford health insurance so I am unable to even fix the issue. 😢 Now I am left wondering why they did not think it was a tear and what other damage this has caused to other compensating parts of my body. In my experience recently with other joint issues, specialist doctors will not take me as a patient without insurance. 😂 ugh.
