Stretches And Exercises For Meniscus Tear Knee Pain 

I had surgery on torn meniscus a few years ago. About 6 or 7 months ago I started having pain in the same knee just like before. I wanted to avoid surgery so I found this video and did the exercises you show here. I did them 6 days a week. Absolutely amazing results! Within a week I felt less pain within 2 weeks I was considerably better. I now do these exercises about 3 times a week for maintenance. No pain at all anymore. Thank you so much!

Thanks for the exercises! They are helping a lot to strengthen my knees after reinjuring my meniscus several years after surgery.

Your exercises are gentle on the meniscus, yet powerful for the muscles.

Thanks for the exercises. Just tore my meniscus again after being repaired 6 years ago. I don’t want to have surgery for them to remove it. I appreciate all that you are doing.

Many Thanks, Doc!

Thank you for these. I will try them.

Thank you for clear presentation sir!

Thanks for talking through the mini squats. I have been trying to do full squats with varied success.

Just started the exercises and already feels great!! How many times a day should I be going through the whole routine? Thanks again!!!

Hello sir I hav started to follow your exercises Hopefully I can feel the difference 😊 Can you please teach us some exercises for the wrist pain

Thanks!

Thank you Jerad, for your exercises to build the knees strengthen as well as the meniscus joints to be strong.

Thanks Doc... very useful exercises... can u show some exercises to increase d gap in the knee for osteoarthritis... traction method

Hi Jared!!! My heart is full of gratitude towards you for sharing all these very effective exercises. I'm seriously and sincerely following all your exercises for knee, hip and back pain. Today I did all the exercises shown in this video. My joy knows no bounds to let you know that I could do those quarter squats so easily and without pain. Really can't thank you enough for sharing these videos. Heartiest thanks to you. May God bless you and your dear family. 💖

It helped. Thanks

I been following these vids for a while now gotta say it’s really making a difference thanks so much been some for some ankle videos

I has surgery two month ago and Still no exercise I don't know what to do now see this video and I love it in I'm gonna do it and thank you so much god bless you thank you very very much mister

Great exercises, really pleased I have found this, will really help with my old Menicus tear injury, top work Doc!!

Hey Doc! Great exercises! Should I do them all in one session? Or how long should a session be?

Is this also helpful if you need to strengthen your knee from a dislocated injury (years ago)? When I run by knee hurts on the outside. Or could you do a vid on strengthening the area and muscles for a dislocated knee injury? Thank you so much 💕

Thank you so much. Glad I found your channel. I can finally do leg day again.

You are a blessing! I was in so much pain and did. These exercises and the next day was up and walking!

uuuh another set of great exercises to add to my collection. 👌 👌 👌 Thanks for your relentless dedication, Jared.🙌🙌 I-ve been a bit lost but haven-t forgotten about the best PT of the RU-vidrse. Stay safe and be well. Best wishes to you and your lovely family!!!🥰🥰🥰

Awesome video..this is exactly what I was looking for....it certainly helped me with my pain....I am a new tennis player and have been experiencing pain due to lateral miniscus tear.....is there a sleeve that i can wear during my tennis game to prevent further damage/pain? Thank you!!

Thanks for another great vid Tone and Tighten. Loving the channel 🙌 Can you please please help me with some advice?? I’m having trouble making a decision on choosing the correct “type” of knee brace for my sports injury. Could you recommend a sports brace that can be worn by a pace bowler while playing cricket?? I’m a right arm opening bowler that puts his body under a fair amount of twisting and load impaction, especially on my left knee joint throughout the bowling crease. The knee joint has developed some slight instabilities, with a lot of cracking and popping (experiencing pain mostly on the medial meniscus side and back of knee joint) My Physiotherapist said there’s nothing majorly wrong with the joint, so he wasn’t keen on recommending a brace just yet. I’ve been working on strengthening the joint and the joint controlling muscles. Knee does get quite painful at times after matches, and is getting worse from season to season. Maybe retirement he said. I have a solid recovery routine of R.I.C.E., anti-inflammatory medications, strengthening exercises, bike work, walking, as well as stretching recovery sessions in a hot/cold therapy pool which are all helping to a degree, but preventative maintenance in the form of a brace is the key I believe. I just need some added support and help choosing one. I’m not ready to give the game away just yet. Please help!🙏 Thanks in advance Tone and Tighten. Cheers Mark, Australia🇦🇺

I can’t thank you enough. This has relieved so much pain in my knee and my hips!! Thanks

I will definitely give these exercises a try, they look like they can really work and get rid of this unbearable knee pain, thanks Dr. !

I have problem with my left leg, just watching and do this once feels a lot better! Thank you!

Excellent way of explaining. Thank you. Thank you.

This timely for me; I've been diagnosed with a meniscus tear and have been scouring RU-vid for something to help until managed health care can figure out how they want me to proceed. Can't wait to get started. Thanks.

Thank you! This is exactly what I needed to help my healing!

Wonderful exercises as always! Success always!!

sir thanks alot. it was wonderful..i felt nice right after 1st set according to your video. how many more days i should repeat this routine? please reply

Recovering from fibula fracture and MCL tear, I found this very helpful will be doing these as I want to get back to normalcy asap 😍

Not long-winded, thanks.

One of the best videos I’ve ever seen keep it up is really helpful god bless you doc

Another great video. Thank you so much.

Thank you. I have a knee injury due to my pregnancy in 2020 being very happy and climbing high stairs daily at that time. Years later the pain comes back when I try to exercise or band my knees.

Hi Jared, Thank you for the comprehensive knee stabilizing exercises. I had meniscus surgery six weeks ago. I found your video a couple of weeks ago an have been doing the your go-to exercises up to now. I must say my knee confidence and reduction of pain is steadily improving. Should I do the series of all the reps more than once a day? Thanks again

Thank you so much ... I tried it for the first time and it is nothing short of miraculous! Will try to repeat 2 to 3 times a day for the next few weeks to strengthen the appropriate muscles.

Thank you!! I hope to make more progress. My right knee is basically bent all the time now that I work out more and it gets inflamed more often. 🤦🏾‍♀️

Thanks for this great presentation. Very easy and useful exercises

Thank you so much....very helpful.👊

Hey doctor Jared , Thank you so much for these exercises. I had an injury while playing basketball five days ago, I went to the floor when quickly planting and twisting. It’s still painful, but I could hobble with my knee wrapped. Will this get better? I have not taken pain meds, just your stretches and rest. Thank you big-time for the value! 🙏🏽

Thanks for these properly structured exercises, and your very clear instructions. By far the best I've found. Turns out I have bone on bone osteoarthritis on both knees. The standard exercises I was given by my physiotherapist, which came from the Arthritis Society were poorly structured, with most too loadbearing and which did my knees more harm than good - I think they were tailored for people with very mild arthtitis but out of condition muscles, not severe arthritis. Your exercises, by contrast, have really helped. I also have neurological weakness in my right leg, and by systematically going through each muscle group your exercises have identified that the weakness / fatigue is primarily in my hip abductor muscles / glutes. I am managing to gradually strengthen them too, and can mark the progress thanks to your exercise program. My neurologist and physiotherapist merely identified weakness in the right leg but gave no help on where the issue was, or on suitable exercises! I have added in a clamshell exercise for additional glute strengthening. For the moment I'm managing to hold off the knee replacement operations. I'm now about to start your hip stretching and strengthening exercises as I have some hip osteoarthritis. They look well structured too. Hoping to have as good results from them as I've had with your knee exercises.

I just did a 10 sets repetition of the first 3 Exercise and the result is instance. For two days ive been in pain. Thank you very much Doc

Awesome exercices! Thank you! 🙂

in 50s....did meniscus test. pretty sure thats my issue. Knee sharper pain on stairs or after sitting for extended time. Sensitive on inside of knee....Also trouble sleeping and very sorry first steps out of bed or after driving for extended time. I have Dr appt but did these exercises and after 1 day of doing them things feel alot better. Been losing quad muscle(noticeably) so was not working out. These stretches' giving me hope i can get back to keeping fit work outs, biking and golf with the sharp pain and swelling. Thanks Jared

Good night. I love your videos. will surely apply them to my daily routine. Been having some serious joint pains. Ankle, knee and wrist.. very painful..

Thank you so much. I only do the Exercise for two days and already feel better and not that much pain in my knee 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks for this video you are a life saver 👍

Wow! Great video. Thanks for the exercises.

Good job. Good explanations that are concise. No extra chatter. Good demos.

Very good advice, doc. I should try this for my left knee. Thanks a lot !

I love it i learn a lot thanks Doc your so amazing

My tear was in pretty bad pain the 4 days or so. Did the first exercise and had relief immediately. Thank you :)

Thank you very much....I am a doctor and learning so much for my Rt. knee lat meniscus ant horn meniscal cyst....

Doctor...thank u very much for great information...

Wow! Dr.thank you so much for sharing this great video. I just saw this , and started doing all your exercises for miniscus tear, which I am suffering from last 5 months. I'm feeling better and better. God bless you abundantly and your family.🙏

Thanks for posting the link to this video for me! Patiently waiting (3 months post-injury) for an okay from either my insurance or worker’s compensation to decide when / if they’ll pay for repair vs. debridement of a posterior horn medial meniscus tear of the left knee.

Informative Vid as always....Exercise #2 Quad set Is where my knee prob lies, when I Tense the Quad and push down on kneecap I feel pain.

Thanks for the knowledge you shared. Would taking glucosamine be a good idea?

Thanks so much

Thank you so much doc, for this work out routine doc i broke my knee last thursday and i think it is not that bad because I did not hear some op sound. But this work out routine really help to improved my stability.

Thank your for this.

Thanks doc. This realy healped me alot

This is really helpful. My father just got his MRI done for knee and lumbar spine as he is feeling continuous pain in left knee. His MRI shows grade 3 medial miniscus tear with grade 1 ACL and MCL sprain. Doctors are prescribing surgery for miniscule repair which we don't want to go for as he already had one L4-L5 surgery long back which lead to his left foot drop. Should he start with exercises alongwith physiotherapy like ultrasound and TEN? Would appreciate your response as we are really worried and confused too.

Thank you 😊

Very Unique form of exercise. They worked wonders on my injured knee

OMG! This is awesome it helps so much! Thank you.🤙🏼🤙🏼👌🏼

This is unbelievable. I have had torn meniscus pain for two weeks. I do not take pain meds. I just did these exercises and walked to the bathroom with NO pain. I cannot believe it. However, I did have pain walking back, but that just means this works and I need to keep doing the exercises. Thank you so, so, much!

Hello..can you please suggest me some exercise for my leg pain and heavyness specially near my ankle and calf muscles

Thank you. I've had football/skateboarding/basketball injuries all on the same right knee. I needed some guidance in finding the right exercises, instead of completely blowing my knee out doing machine lifting/squats. Thanks Bro 👍

Thanks

Thank u.. Sie

Thanks a lot.very effective.was suffering for more than 6 maths.gave me instant relief

Got relief right away. Thanks so much.

Hello Dr. Jared. I love your videos and they are very helpful. I have knee problem/pain ( fluid under my knee based on X-ray results) do you have advice or exercises for this type of problem? Also, do you recommend draining the fluid out of knee? Thanks

I realized with these excersizes that my upper leg was not as strong as I thought, and being a soccer player this is huge...that by strengthening all the muscles around your knee, you align and protect this inner knee area

Well thanks doc ❤️ it helped m

thank you

Great videos Doc! All these exercises, is it recommended to do them after or before I do my workout routine?

Thank you for the video, really helpful. I have medial meniscus tear, Which shoes is better for meniscus tear, stability support or shock observer i.e. ASICS Kayano or Nimbus? I walk about 7km a day, I do not run. Thank you

THANK YOU VERY HELPFUL FACT 🎯🎯🎯

Thank you so much, I couldn't move my knee but after 2 days of doing these exercises, I could move it with minimal pain
