What is a Meniscus Tear?

A Meniscus Tear is an injury to the meniscus, a crescent-shaped piece of cartilage that cushions and stabilises the knee joint. Each knee has two menisci that act as shock absorbers between the femur and tibia. Meniscus tears can occur during sudden twists, pivots, or impacts to the knee, often seen in sports like football, basketball, and tennis. Symptoms of a meniscus tear include pain, swelling, stiffness, and difficulty moving the knee or fully extending the leg.

Managing Knee Pain from a Meniscus Tear

Are You Struggling with Knee Pain and Stiffness from a Meniscus Tear?

Living with a meniscus tear can make daily activities and physical exercise challenging, as pain, swelling, and limited mobility may interfere with walking, bending, or lifting. You may feel frustrated by the restrictions and unsure how to manage your knee’s recovery effectively. With the right support and treatment, you can reduce pain, regain strength, and return to your active lifestyle.

A Meniscus Tear is Frustrating – But Relief is Within Reach

A meniscus tear presents unique physical and emotional challenges:

  • Physical Limitations: Pain, swelling, and restricted movement in the knee that impact daily activities and athletic pursuits.
