Knee Injury Question

**biscuitsngravy** · 09-26-2010, 07:47 PM

I just went to the doc two days ago because of terrible pain in my left knee when I walk (or just sit around for that matter.) Doc says he thinks I have a torn meniscus. (cartilege between the knee bones) To make sure, I have to go get an MRI before he repairs it.

I think I tore it swinging my right leg over the Nomad seat and twisting my left knee at the same time. Maybe more than once. It didn't hurt at the time, but now it is very painful!

Surgery will be arthoscopic with two small incisions near the knee.

Has anyone had the same kind of problem? I just wonder how common this is. BnG
