Symptoms of Meniscus injury
Meniscus the C Shaped cartilage giving cushion
between the thigh bone and the shin bone and also
aids in the smooth movement of the knee. Any
age-related deterioration on the meniscus, injury
due to blunt force or sudden twisting or jumping
motion could cause a lot of pain in the knee and
can even make it immobile. This injury can be of
varying gravity and the pain factor could also
increase or decrease with the severity of the
injury. This injury can also become major if the
damage is in the inner part of the meniscus where
blood vessels are less. This factor of the inner
part of the meniscus being avascular makes the
injury very difficult to heal and may need
surgical intervention for rectification.
As the injury is internal we have to depend on
the symptoms to know if we have a meniscus tear.
Some common signs and symptoms of a meniscus are
given below. Any such signs have to be attended
by a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment of
the same. The symptoms may seem minor but could
aggravate over time and increase your discomfort
and even lock your knee.

• A popping sound or feeling. 
• Swelling or stiffness in the knee
• Knee pain when twisting or moving
• Discomfort in Knee when you straighten your knee
• Discomfort or restriction in normal movement
• Locked knee
• Lack of stability and strength in the knee.

The above symptoms are a sign for you to consult
your orthopedic or knee specialist. This is a
very common injury with sportsperson and also is
a very common damage to the knee which has been
on an increase today. This injury is not only
restricted to a sportsperson. Anybody having to
do fast and abrupt actions like twisting jumping
or pick up or carry heavy loads can incur this
injury. The injury can also be afflicted to a
person doing normal routine and light work too.
So a meniscus tear is a very common but very
painful injury that needs to be diagnosed and
treated properly.

People have a notion that torn meniscus will heal
on its own and need only rest and maybe some
fomentation. The truth is that not all meniscus
tears will heal on their own. Tears that are
minor and are in the vascular region of the
meniscus tend to heal on their own and the tear
that is severe and on the avascular region of the
meniscus will need medical or surgical
intervention to cure it. It may also take more
time than normal to heal as the region is devoid
or has a very meager or no source of healing
blood flow.

Blood being a major part of the healing process
makes the healing slower due to the lack of it in
certain areas of the meniscus. Some tears are so
minor and may go away after a while due to
self-healing that you will be able to easily sit,
stand, sleep and walk without much discomfort.
They may just need rest and some external
medication for healing. Dr. Manish Maheshwari,
