The menisci are cartilage tissue which act like shock absorbers in the knee joint. A meniscus can be torn, commonly after a forceful twisting injury to the knee. Symptoms include pain, swelling, and 'locking' of the knee. Some heal by themselves, but an operation to fix, trim or remove the torn meniscus may be advised.
You're a very naughty boy DGP. :nervous
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

So how long will it take you to be back on your feet and doing back flips SP?
Does this rag smell of chloroform to you?

Not sure how long it takes. I've got to see my GP in 2 weeks and back to see the consultant in 6 weeks. I'm signed off until the middle of December. No driving for 2 weeks, which is probably the worst bit. I can weight bear on my leg just can't walk on it very well at the moment. Still got the pain in my thigh which appeared when I injured my knee, just hoping thats to do with the operation yesterday and not an injury thats been missed.
As for backflips that never happened before, too knackered so guaranteed with the revision coming in its never gonna happen :wink:
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

The thigh pain might just be soft tissue damage which is apparently worse than a break. Maybe with the rest and then you walking properly, it'll stop.

When I had my AOD, my physio said that when you're injured, you tend to find the most comfortable position to walk/sit/sleep etc but this can then cause strain on other parts. Perhaps with your knee being buggered, you've been making muscles in your thigh work a way they don't like?

The leg is feeling better, still got the thigh pain though. Felt really ill over the weekend must've been all the chemicals in my system. Took the bandage off yesterday, looks like its still bleeding on one side.

Oi! No! I can vouch for SP - she's sound as a pound, she is....and she ain't no management stool pigeon ( why'd you think she got stuck in the room of doom for so long? Not to mention her treatment, since she escaped ). So what if she has a leather sofa? Give the girl a break, life isn't a bed of roses for her.... she likes scooters, FFS! :runlikefuck.gif
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?
