#Meniscus injury

I don't normally write or post anything on here, but I damaged my meniscus and potentially ACL, so I was just wondering if anyone has any experience around those two injuries? Thank you!

What Could Cause Meniscus Injury?

Meniscal injury or torn meniscus is one of the commonest knee injuries faced by people. Menisci plays a vital role in stabilizing the knee. Besides this, it also ensures easy movement of the knee joint while helping it absorb the shock that occurs while walking and performing other weight-bearing activities. Thus, it is very important to prevent meniscal injury, and if it occurs, addressing timely is the key. In this post, we will be discussing some of the common causes of meniscus injury along with the treatment required.

My left knee hurts so fucking much I don't know why, the MRI showed almost nothing and the brace actually makes the pain worse

[hardtchill]

What criteria did you use to compile your list? I know a few more maybe

I went by these critetria

injury sustained between 1st of january 2022 - now.

Plays in a pro league (i don't differentiate between bigger and smaller leagues).

Full or partial ACL (most are full, but sometimes players get away with a partial tear).

I don't follow all leagues so i'm kinda relying on other people to add to the list. I will make it into a spreadsheet so it can keep being updated.

A 2024 article in the journal Orthopedic Reviews says, “PRP proved to decrease the time to return to sports among a group who did PRP injection with physiotherapy compared to the control group that underwent rehabilitation alone.”

MY LEFT LEG PROBLEM:

I have an unknown condition or long-term injury that has impacted me for a few years, but has been steadily getting worse. In the past couple weeks alone I've become reliant on my cane 100% of the time, lost all physical abilities with my legs outside of walking(including running, sports, jumping, kneeling, walking quickly, kicking, etc.), and have become almost completely bedbound outside of school. I go to school, stumble through classes half awake and in indescribable pain, try and fail to eat lunch because the pain is so bad, go home and spend the next 12 hours lying on a heating pad until I have to do it all over again. I have intense pain 24/7 that randomly spikes from anywhere from a few seconds to hours multiple times every day. The pain comes from my knee, but everything below it hurts as well. I can't stand for longer than a minute and walk for more than 5 at a time, on a good day. Even after just 5 minutes of walking I can't move my leg for 10 plus minutes. After a minute of standing or 5 of walking(often times less) I will uncontrollably collapse and be unable to move at all for 30-60 minutes. Even after all that time I can still only move to go from the floor to my bed or a chair/bench if in public where I have to rest for longer. It's not a muscle or bone problem. My PT and GP think it's a torn meniscus(knee cartilage), but we won't know until I have an mri which my insurance won't currently cover because it's "not medically necessary". A torn meniscus is usually treated by surgery if severe, sometimes not even that much is needed. Since it's been at least 5 years since the tear happened(if that does end up being the problem), surgery might not even be an option. I need a wheelchair. I can't afford one, my house isn't wheelchair accessible, my school is 2 stories and the elevator is constantly broken, I wouldn't be able to ride the bus(my only way to school), where I live if you home school in high school they force you to get a GED not a diploma. If I get surgery recovery time is 6 months, so I'd have to quit the Speech & Debate team. If you quit for any amount of time you can never be on the team again. I regularly get called slurs and insulting nicknames, get fake claimed, have had people try to steal my cane, and have been intentionally pushed down my school's staircases multiple times. I tend to chew on my cane's handle when anxious which has gotten me sexualized, a lot. I'm also suspected for tendinitis in my ankle. The longer a torn meniscus is untreated the bigger the tear becomes and the more likely you are to develop degenerative knee arthritis. I'm also suspected for knee arthritis. Knee braces only make the pain worse and irritate my skin condition, leg braces don't do anything. My cane barely works anymore. I can't use a walker because of my back or crutches because of the school's broken elevator. My GP can only prescribe me ibprophen because of a lack of diagnosis. It does nothing. Nor does any other pain medicine I've tried for anything. I took a pill once that's so strong that it can kill you to take more than 1 a day. It brought me down to what able-bodied people would probably call a 'five'. That was before it got bad.

I don't know how much longer I can survive.

Physical therapy for Torn Meniscus

Physical therapy for Torn Meniscus The knee has a built in shock absorber called the meniscus.  The knee joint consists of the end of the femur connected to the top of the tibia.  The end of the femur is slightly curved out, and the tibia slightly caved in.  This allows for the joint to roll and have smoothness of motion.  The ends of the bones have a different surface structure than the rest of…
