Torn Meniscus

i currently have a torn lateral meniscus. The most obvious indication is when you crouch down as far as possible it will hurt at the location. I get a searing pain on the outside of my left knee to the point that I can crouch no lower.

I've torn my meniscus twice in the past year and a half. It totally depends on where and how big the tear is. Typically you'll notice it if you crouch down or during exercises/sports where your twisting and pivoting at the knee a lot.

i tore mine in 3 spots and had a sist too. for me it was a really sharp pain any time i started to even try to jog, and it felt like i could never stretch it enough..

had arthroscopic surgery done on it, they cleaned up the tears, and got rid of the sist and was skiing a month later. and havent had any problems with that knee since.

^ same here. I've been good for like 3 years but then it got messy again. It gets swollen when you ski (or when you practice any "stop and go" types of sports). It kinda hurts but not that bad. Feels weak when it's swollen. MRI will clear your mind

I tore mine a little bit in June last year when I tore my MCL. They were both assumed to heal naturally. However, throughout ski season any forward landing, especially when backseat, would hurt. I overshot a jump in December a little bit and that hurt it a ton. I couldn't ski for a couple weeks after that. It was basically a constant ache when skiing, then a sharp pain with any tough landing.
