Meniscus Repair Rehabilitation

Meniscus repair surgery is done to fix a torn meniscus—the cartilage in your knee that cushions and stabilizes the joint. This injury can happen during sports, accidents, or twisting the knee in daily life. Physical therapy after surgery is key to healing properly, reducing stiffness, and regaining strength and movement.

Causes and Risk Factors:

  • Twisting or pivoting the knee during activity
  • Sudden stops or changes in direction
  • Lifting heavy objects or squatting deeply
  • Aging and wear-and-tear on the knee
  • Previous knee injuries or weak leg muscles

 

What Happens If Left Untreated?

Without proper rehab, a repaired meniscus may not heal fully, leading to knee pain, swelling, stiffness, and increased risk of future tears or joint damage.
