I was told the Meniscus tear behind my knee is not operable. I was unable to walk. With many weeks of physical therapy, exercise at home, simple walking and exercise in the pool, I’ve come a long way. I take vitamins, supplements and no longer eat any foods with additives,sugars or high in carbs. I also fast for 16 hours between my two meals a day and don’t eat after 7 p.m. My goal is to get functional walking and balance back. I’m 64.

Suffer meniscus tear and stress fracture in Nov 22, I did all the rehabilitation shown on the web. Terrible pain. I declined the scope in March, given that was a fast track to partial replacement on my left knee back in 2020.I really don't want a replacement on my right knee. I was frustrated and limping until I found this Dr. and learned I was going about my rehab the wrong way. I've been working on my glues for 3+ weeks, I'm no longer limping and have started to walk a bit more now. THANK YOU DR.

Thanks David, I’d had bad advice from a surgeon, he wanted to do two knee replacements as I’d torn my meniscus. Went for a second opinion, no I didn’t need knee replacements. The main knee pain was coming from an old back injury. I can’t do squats or glute exercises, or over walk my pain flares up. I now know I need to build up my glutes. 👍 Great video, I’m watching from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺🐨

Hi David. I want to avoid surgery on my left knee. My doctor said it will never heal. It’s a moderate to severe tear. I don’t feel pain in my knee unless I bare weight on it-which I have been avoiding. I am able to walk without pain. I offset weight from my knee when using stairs. My doctor said my tear is in the interior back part of my meniscus. MRI says “In the medial compartment there is a moderate to severe tear at the posterior root of the medial meniscus with slight meniscal extrusion. Reactive sub cortical edema/cystic change in the tibia is noted.” Could you please explain this? Can I be healed without surgery? Surgery will only guarantee arthritis as I age. I have a little arthritis now. I am a 57 year old female. 5’3” and 195lbs. Lost 33lbs in 2021 and gained 24lbs of it back. Has anyone you know healed from my condition without surgery? Could you recommend a therapist in my area? South Orange, NJ. Thank you. You’re a God send. You truly care about people recovering and healing without unnecessary surgery.

My right knee problem began about 3 months ago. I’d been kneeling a couple of days prior to my knee starting to click - no pain just clicking when walking and moving in bed. The clicking then stopped and pain in the inside of my knee began. I went to the urgent care centre and after a very quick examination the doctor said I have bone on bone arthritis. Anyhow I’m seeing a physiotherapist tomorrow and hoping for some help. The knee is getting stiff as are surrounding structures. I’m 62, male and have some additional weight on me (MC4R). I already walk with a stick due to pre-existing spinal issues so plenty to deal with :) I just wanted to say thanks for giving me hope😊

Dr. David really talked with a lot of sense. I really understand my current situation right now by listening to his explanations and did all what he has to advised. Last couple of months I went to a military hospital here in the Philippines, I am not going to say the name of the hospital but I sure did and ask for help but it turns out to be the biggest mistake of my life. The duty orthopedic who turns out to be a Major said something while attending to me that I was just shopping for reasons to avoid reassignments and hard duties, that words of his really like sending bullets to my head because I knew myself for 22 years of military duties, I was faithful to the service. I just filed my Retirement folder with a heart ache! Bravo Zulu to those sharing their expertise and knowledge to the masses.

Just been referred this week for MRI on knee... had 3rd injection in hip( inflamed bursitis) yesterday.

Hey, from Houston Texas I’ve recently been towed and had an MRI of both knees stating they want to start doing surgery on my right knee immediately for a malicious tear that I have. The doctor was only in there I promise no more two minutes if that he came in he says MRI shows you need surgery. You have two knees with tears in them but here’s the thing my gut is telling me not to do it. I’m searching on KZbin for all the hospitals and other doctors like videos like yourself, saying not to do it basically I’ve had people who’s had it and told me not to do it I’m 61 years old female and that has a concert. Also at the fair not doing it and I am doing stretches of exercise that’s meant for my knee unfortunately every time I go into physical therapy they want to charge me $50 so I can’t afford that going to her three times a week too much for me so I am trying to do stretches at home doing my bicycling very gently slowly and walking, so what are your thoughts? I know you can’t say yay or nay, without looking at the x-rays are they film but what are your thoughts on something like this make up is still just so you know no no but back of my mind is thinking if you don’t get this done, it’s going to get worse. I just don’t know what to do

I tote a meniscus in my right knee over 5 years ago. At that time the knee was drained. It has been swollen most of my adult life. During the last year it has become more uncomfortable.
