Recovery after knee cartilage or meniscus repair !

Описание: Following knee surgery for cartilage repair or meniscus tears, a successful recovery hinges on proper rehabilitation. This process differs from ACL reconstruction, which often involves a more intensive physical therapy program. Here's what to expect:
-Healing First:
Our primary goal is to allow the repaired tissues or trimmed meniscus sufficient time to heal. This involves a period of rest, often with crutches to minimize pressure on the knee joint.
-Gentle Rehabilitation:
Physical therapy is crucial, but the approach is gentler compared to ACL recovery. Exercises focus on gradually building strength, improving flexibility, and restoring comfortable movement in the knee. Deep knee bends are initially avoided, as they can put too much strain on the healing meniscus. In some cases, supportive braces might be used to further protect the joint and promote optimal healing.
-Patience is Key:
Remember, tissue repair takes time. While basic functionality might return within 4-6 weeks, full recovery can take up to 3-6 months. Following your doctor's instructions and adhering to a well-defined physical therapy program are essential for a successful outcome. Consistent effort and a commitment to gradual progression will pave the way for a return to your favorite activities and a pain-free knee.
