Rehab after Meniscus surgery - Exercise Videos for Meniscus Rehab

[@curtiswreglesworth1013]

Hi Doc, I had a bucket handle meniscus tear. No issues really during the 6 weeks on crutches. What do you recommend a timeline of exercises 1-2 weeks 2-4 and 4-6 weeks?

[@Physiotutors]

Concise and reasonable info 👏🏼

[@yourphysioonline]

I appreciate that guys!

Hi I am 4 weeks post surgery. He cut away a small piece of the medial maniscus. I was doing good unfortunately yesterday I began to have pain in the medial maniscus area.I think I was possibly just doing to much walking. I am going to take a couple days of rest. Do you think I possibly re injured my knee? Thanks

[@vickyls8132]

Had my surgery almost 5 weeks ago. If I watch TV all day, I’m okay. If I walk, shop, do a few house chores, I’m miserable. I was told to use the crutches for a few days, as needed. I called my doc’s office. The PA said to give it 8 weeks total. I’m hurting so much. Frustrated!

[@yourphysioonline]

Too bad to hear Vicky, maybe you're doing too much. Try to spread you chores more during the day and get your feet up in the air more often, don't move towards your end range of motion of the knee and take it easy during the day. If you feel like you're not getting there, get in touch with Arjan on our website, he knows how to deal with meniscus repairs!!

Now I’m paranoid about my up owning surgery.

[@LongIslandNY-op8su]

Same here, it’ll be 5 exactly on Friday. I have a friend who works in PT , he told me to keep icing it when ever it starts to swell. How is your knee now?

[@carolynberneiser9339]

Thanks very professional and helpful

[@dougmartin6717]

My meniscus tear didn't seem extreme, as it was nearly horizontal, leaving a sandwich stack that added up could act as the original thickness. But the doc said to expect 6 to 12 months before healing. And so it goes. 6 months later it is just starting to feel a little better, but the swelling is still substantial. I take it from your message that I've just tried to overdo the rehab. With just indoor rowing, biking and hiking I hoped to be easy enough on it while staying fit. I take it I just need to do less. You think?

Thank you

@@yourphysioonline..Hi, would a Surgeon while performing a Meniscus Repair Surgery, be able to see the beginning stages of Arthritis?

[@JL-du2rt]

Hi doctor. I had miniscus repair surgery almost 5 weeks ago. I still have some pain on it , especially when I do certain exercises or when I wake up in the mornings , feels stiffed . I can walk slowly and I’m fine, and heating pack does make it feel better. Is this normal in the heeling process ? I’m worried that I reinjured the miniscus . Thank you .

[@fishamania3856]

Week 1, stitched meniscus, it sucks, worse then my broken femur, less motivating but seeing improvement.

[@toniczarnecki1674]

I had meniscus sx 3 months ago, my knee is swollen most of the time. The main thing that hurts me horribly is the back of my knee ,I can't sit very long because I can't stand or move fast to walk!!!! No body gives me a clear answer!!! I hurt most of the time,any suggestions?😢

[@sithlord5751]

How soon after surgery do we do these exercises

[@yourphysioonline]

you can start the extension mobilization drills really soon. But the video tells you what to look out for when doing the exercises. Good luck. And if you want to have a more tailored advice, visit yourphysio.online

[@soorajp556]

Hello doctor i have got my lateral meniscus repair surgery and my physio told me not to sit cross legged on floor as it causes wear and tear. Could you please guide before sugery i was able to sir comfortably.

[@asadmalil5442]

Hello i got my meniscus tear and they stitched it and i want to begin wrestling and sometimes when i squat i feel little bit of pain what should i do

[@yourphysioonline]

For any personal health or rehab questions we recommend to consult with our physio at yourphysio.online for a remote physiotherapy consultation.

[@yourphysioonline]

Hi Asad, thanks for reaching out to us. It really depends on when they stitched it. I would recommend you should take at least 6 months before you try to start wrestling. And after six months it also depends on how the knee looks, how stable, strong and mobile it is. But to answer your question on what to do, I can't answer that. If you want me to answer that question, you could book an online consultation at yourphysio.online

[@eastwonspringbok1615]

Am now a year out off sport...doing a meniscus surgery...when i stand to long on it my knee is ancomforble....what exercise must i do

[@yourphysioonline]

that's tough to hear. To be honest, there can be multiple reasons why you are feeling uncomfortable. It can just be the fact that you're standing for too long on your feet in one position but there can also be still a reactive knee. So if we want to answer that question we need to book an online consultation. You can do that at yourphysio.online. We can probably answer this question in a single session

[@AhsanAli-oh7zv]

Sir I done my knee surgery 2months ago mistakingly ido squat above 90 degree but no pain is good aur not nd what about langes

[@mohdalhashimi2967]

Doc..can I squat or do lunges within 5 week after my meniscus repair surgery??

[@yourphysioonline]

Hi Mohd, depends. If they repared your meniscus, like stitched it back together, chances are high that you shouldn't be doing squats. If they just removed a piece of your meniscus, you could probably do some squats. But to give you clear advice it's best to book an online appointment at our website at yourphysio.online. We can probably help you a lot with a single session by just answering your questions and giving you the best tools

[@elmanaoproductions946]

I have problems in the inner lateral part of my knee I feel discomfort technically it is not pain although after my work it has sometimes hurt me it has been 3 weeks since I started feeling discomfort I have always liked the Bulgarian split squat perhaps it is the exercise that the most I like to do it for three weeks I have not practiced it for fear of injuring myself more I am a cook in a restaurant my question is the following, can I continue doing the Bulgarian split squat or should I forget about it forever?

[@yourphysioonline]

If the split squat feels good, just do it! But to answer what's going on in the knee, I need more information. You could consider booking an online appointment at our website yourphysio.online/book

Hii..Dr..I gone through a partial meniscectomy of medical meniscus in right knee in 2017..But after 4 years of surgery I have some pain in knee in long standing and also my leg is very weak...What to do now to relieve pain or gain knee or leg strength...Any exercise suggestion

[@yourphysioonline]

Hi Rakesh, that's hard to do through this message. You could try the exercises in the video, else you could consider getting in touch with our specialized physios: yourphysio.online/book I hope this works. Good luck

[@imrangani1600]

Hi Rakesh I have recently gone through partial medial mesecctomy.can I know what can I do so that I can move again just like earlier.my right leg is still paining little bit when I walk.

[@sylvesterveigas8874]

Hello Dr. I had my ACL and meniscus repair surgery 4 months a ago. Just want to confirm am I good now before starting this excersices also does after 4 months meniscus heal or should I wait for 2 moths before starting my excersice

[@yourphysioonline]

Hi Sylvester, that's hard to say. If you haven't been doing a lot in the last 4 months or if you don't have enough balance/proprioception, these exercises could be too hard. So I'm sorry but I can't answer these questions with this information. You could consider getting in touch with us through our website yourphysio.online, so we can have an online appointment. I can ask the right questions, see your knee and can give you a personalized rehab plan. Good luck!

[@shahmsalim1711]

Hello .. I did a surgery for a radial meniscus tear a week ago they didn’t take anything of it just repair I still can’t band it only a little is that okay ?

[@yourphysioonline]

No that's not normal. Try to bend it more during the day, just build it up gradually. And if you need some personal help, consider booking an appointment with us! at yourphysio.online

[@taimoorgujjar]

Hi doctor I had medial meniscus repair surgery. My dr advised to not put weight but now after 4 weeks of surgery i can walk without any pain and crutches. Guide that I can put load on my knee and walk and can do exercises. Please

[@yourphysioonline]

I can't answer this question because I don't have enough information. It really depends if you had meniscus repair or removal. We can answer that question probably within one session at yourphysio.online.

[@taimoorgujjar]

@@yourphysioonline Ok dr Thanks.

[@prakashsinghrajput2114]

Hey☺️ i had a meniscus repair and chondrocyte implantation two weeks ago.today i went back to the hospital for suture removal and they allowed me to bend my knee upto 30 degrees for the first week.i feel a lot of pain trying to bend and feel like my knee isnt allowinge to bend😂.is it normal or?☺️

[@yourphysioonline]

If you weren't allowed to bend the knee prior to that visit, there is a chance that it will be uncomfortable if you start bending it after two weeks. Make sure you take it day by day, don't try to bend your knee fully within a week. If you need some extra help, go to yourphysio.online/book

[@abdelhamidhassani6379]

Hello Dr. Thank you for the video. I had my surgery 5 months ago. I am still bothered with pain in the sport of the stitching... for instance when use stairs going up or down. One more thing. I still feel the thread inside my knee, when i asked the doc he told me that i was obliged to use a type of thread that doesn't melt, and he said he would remove it in the future. I was told also to start running now but i am still not that confident because my whole leg is still weak. Would you please explain to me this
