What are 3 signs of a meniscus tear in the knee?

 CHRONIC KNEE PAIN can arise from a variety of sources..

But one common culprit is a meniscus tear. 

The meniscus is a rubbery, C-shaped piece of cartilage that acts as a shock absorber between the thigh bone (femur) and the shinbone (tibia). 

Tears in this vital joint structure can cause significant pain and dysfunction.

If you're dealing with ongoing knee issues, here are 3 signs that may indicate a meniscus tear,,,

Sign #1. Locking Or Catching

A common symptom of a meniscus tear is a feeling like your knee is "locking up" or catching when you try to bend or straighten it. 

This occurs when the torn meniscus becomes lodged between the bones, preventing full range of motion.

Sign #2. Swelling And Stiffness 

Significant swelling and stiffness in the knee joint, especially after activity, is another telltale sign. 

The torn meniscus causes inflammation that limits mobility.

Sign #3. Sharp, Localized Pain 

You may experience a distinct, sharp pain on the inside or outside of your knee, directly at the joint line. 

This is the area where the torn meniscus is located.

It's important to note that the severity of these symptoms can vary greatly depending on the size and location of the meniscus tear. 

Some people may experience only mild discomfort, while others have debilitating pain and loss of function.
