Quiz: What is a Meniscus Tear?

Questions
 
True
False
1

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.

2

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.

3

There are different types of meniscus tears.

Explanation:

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

4

In most cases treatment of a meniscal tear includes the RICE protocol.

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.

5

Following surgery, most patients will remain in the hospital for 2-4 days.

Explanation:

If surgery is required, an orthopedic surgeon will perform arthroscopic surgery to prevent further damage to the knee. Meniscus surgery is generally a day procedure, with patients going home on crutches. The recovery time is usually around two weeks.

    As far as this doctor is concerned, once the surgery has been completed, he feels that his job is done. This is the message that he sends to the patient by his complete lack of interest in their recovery, and poor responses to patient questions. I suppose his surgical skills are adequate, but would not rush to recommend him for anything requiring more than a surgical technician.
