Questions

Meniscus injuries are more common for people under the age of 30.

Explanation:

The meniscus is often injured as athletes attempt a twisting or weight-bearing motion. Meniscus injuries are more common for people over the age of 30, as the meniscus weakens as we age. They can also occur as a result of diseases such as osteoarthritis.

Symptoms of a meniscus tear include pain on one side of the knee.

Explanation:

Symptoms of a meniscus tear include pain on one side of the knee, localized swelling, loss of range of motion and a sensation of the knee locking or not being able to straighten it completely.

Explanation:

You may experience a tear of the posterior horn of the meniscus, medial meniscus, lateral meniscus or bucket handle.

Explanation:

In most cases a meniscal tear can be treated with the RICE protocol (rest, ice, compression and elevation), anti-inflammatories, bracing and physiotherapy to stretch and strengthen the muscles of the knee.
