I got both in my left leg, i want to get a surgery i just dont have the money and ive been dealing with it for 4 years now, i just want to express the experience to other people that find themselves in the same sittuation, its not the end of the world and you will be able to walk again you just gotta stay active and dont slack or put yourself in a position for a safety concern, save your money and work harder than you ever have and offer your doctor cash its way cheaper, my wife was pregnant with twins at the time i got hurt and those were kids #3&4 so im struggling with saving enough to survive while i recover, i make just enough anually to not quallify for anything so be safe friends
I’m doing well thanks. I can now fully extended my leg. Maybe not the full backwards flex (if that makes sense). I can now bend the leg past 90 degrees and attending biweekly physiotherapy. Good question on which ones in specific. I just got told it was ACL reconstruction and resitting the meniscus.
@realmattjc thanks for replying. I have an ACL reconstruction and a buckle handle medial meniscus tears repair surgery this upcoming wednesday .. I'm currently walking with a limp as it hurts to fully extend leg .. it feels something is preventing it from extending it .. just hoping after surgery I can walk normal again.. sure does sucks walking this way
Hi Khalid! I'm an actor in the West End with a dodgy knee (3 ACL reconstructions...) and wondered if you could do a video on how well braces support weak ACLs? Donjoy/Medi etc. I wore 1 for a year when touring, and may have to go back to wearing it as having some pain at the moment. Not a physio, but find your videos super informative! Thanks, Andy Carter
Hi My doctor didn’t specify but my inner ligaments but the outer doesn’t hurt and I can fully strength my leg but I can’t bend it comfortably He said I’ll be fine if I don’t do anything in 6 weeks but I’m so anxious
I was doing heavy leg extensions and I felt like my knee slipped…. And when I walk it feels like my upper leg will slide off my shin… no-pain or swelling just feels a bit sketchy…do you no what it could be??
How you added the slides in the description of the key words is something I’ve never seen. This is amazing 🤩

I’ve just had an op for both at the same time yesterday. Oh the pain this morning 😢
So sorry to hear of your injury but hope this means you are on the right recovery path 🙏🏼
@@ClinicalPhysiothank you. Hope so. Walking hasn’t been easy for 6 weeks now so short term pain and all that jazz 😂😂
How are you doing now ??can you walk now?can you extend your leg fully?what kind of meniscus tear did you have?and what kind of acl tear?

Can you talk about expected symptoms years after the injury…like 35 years later.
Keep up the good work Sir. We truly appreciate your work as physio students
Very kind! Thank you so much!
What is the recommended treatment when a patient has both ACL and Meniscus injuries?
wonderful!

Did you get better? I am going through the same and I am on my 5th week with an immobilizer, does it get better?
Just got a new patient, both ACL and medial meniscus. Undiagnosed for 9 weeks post incident!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I just found you and I'm so grateful that I did. Thank you so much , the video was very informative. You just earned another new subscriber 🥰
Awesome! Thank you so much!
Hyperextended, no contact, field hockey-ACL, fractured Tibia and meniscus tear
😱 sorry to hear that! I’ve recently had what seems to be a similar sounding injury also in field hockey 😢 such a dangerous sport
Four weeks post op today, acl reconstruction and complex tear of meniscus... longer rehand than if it was just one or the other
Very informative video
Thank you so much!
May I know what software is being used?

How do I recover from a meniscus injury?
It’s absolutely possible for many people with physiotherapy! Please consult a physiotherapist for professional and individual advice
Rodri's injury brought me here
