Thanks! Years of playing central midfield like Colback. The surgeon said I had ACLs like celery. Hence why my pro career ended up being about a week long

Hi!
Long long term lurker but this is the first time I've had the urge to post! Fav cheese is anything non-french...

I had meniscal repair (plus 3 large cysts removed). Essentially my knee was a mess (lots of minor ligament tears etc too).

What a surgeon will say as recovered is different to a physio.

Surgeon will say 6 weeks with restricted movement. Physio will say 1 year.

You will barely weight bare for a week or 2. Then it'll step up... So you won't be able to drive.

If you have meniscus tear fixed by non repair (i.e. they cut out the bad bit) you will be fine in 6 weeks, doubt you can drive on the day but you will be able to walk unassisted pretty soon.

Long term, repair is better as you have your cartilage to protect your joint, the other isn't so good for your joint.

Having said that, I've had complications and my knee is still messed up🤣 I've got a swollen fatty pad (oooerrr). It keeps getting stuck in my knee and feels almost the same pre surgery...2 years later. Still pleased I've had it done though. I know it will be fine, eventually
