Hey!
How's it goin?
In today's episode I am discussing the differences between an acute meniscus tear and degenerative meniscus tears.

Understanding Meniscus Tears: Acute vs. Degenerative
Acute Meniscus Tears

  • Symptoms
  • Causes - plant and twist

Degenerative Meniscus Tears

  • Symptoms
  • Causes - wear and tear, repetitive motions, jobs requiring deep squatting
  • Answer: Does pain correlate to the degree or level of meniscus degeneration?

Compensatory problems from pain related to meniscus tears
