Meniscus Tear

 

The meniscus is a piece of cartilage in your knee providing cushioning effect and protects bones from getting rubbed with each other. However, like other knee injuries, meniscus tears can happen to anyone involved in high-impact activities. It occurs when an athlete changes direction suddenly or occurs at the same time as other knee injuries like an ACL injury. In fact, a meniscal tear is one of the most frequently occurring cartilage injuries of the knee. When it happens, you might feel

• A popping sensation

• Swelling or stiffness

• Pain, especially when twisting or rotating your knee
