    Re: Meniscus issues

    ~ Chondromalacia can be treated during the scope though the benefits may not be apparent for some weeks.
    ~ the menciscal problems can be sorted at the same time with trimming and a washout
    ~ I would doubt a lax ACL would be treated with surgery. Mostly there has to be tears or division for surgery

    Problem with knee problems like this is they are long term so don't expect any overnight miracles. All the best ....

    Re: Meniscus issues

    The Wikipedia reference-linkMeniscus tears are very common in the human knee. The injury can occur in any age group. In younger people, the meniscus is fairly tough and rubbery, and tears usually occur as a result of a forceful twisting injury. The meniscus can be torn in several ways. The entire inner rim of the medial meniscus can be torn in what is called a buckethandle tear.
