Question:
I had the interior of my medial meniscus removed do to severe knee pain a few years back.?
I had the interior of my medial meniscus removed do to severe knee pain a few years back. I did not start running again after the surgery. Has anyone had good luck training and distance running after having this type of surgery? I believe I have about 70% of my meniscus remaining.
And if so - any tips!
Answers:
I would recommend swimming or biking. I think it is only down hill from your 70% if you do distance running. At Syracuse University I knew a football player that tore it once and then rehabbed the heal but as soon as he went back to playing again it ripped again pretty quickly. This may have been a freak occurance in a different type of running, but I know he can't run anymore on it because it's all gone now. Just be careful I guess...I don't do distance.
