Meniscal tear in both knees

SB Labs
Kinda a loaded question. Multiple tears in both and just being totally honest only the patient can answer to get cut or not. I’ve had both surgically repaired and both not the 2nd time each one tore. Difference in my decision had nothing to do with pain but everything to do with recovery time and functionality. First two times were when I was a professional fighter so Surgery with immediate PE by sports minded doctors. The second tears I was retired so I didn’t really give a fuck anymore and just let them heal along with PE.

Gonna just say that IMO for me the non surgical, PE, route is better unless you need that knee at 100% for some kind of sport or job. If you can get by with like 85% then you’re golden. Compression bands also help me a lot. Might be mental but still helps.

I’ll also just say it. Stem Cells in Mexico. Cheap and the absolutely work.
 
Not all tears are the same. seems if there is a meniscus flap tear then i am guessing surgury may be needed more. If the tissue has folded over i am not seeing healing on it's own going as well.
 
Sounds like OP is a badass FF. Digging fire lines and knocking down timber. thanks for all you do brother. (y)

But if one is 100% torn, fix it.
Cant get any worse right??

Thank you AR. I definitely gotta keep these knees bolted up as long as I can. Any recommendations on braces. Unfortunately the way the snow packs and weather out here have been wild fire season is going to come early. I hate to see that happen. I love my job and being part of something that helps others the best we can

Hey fellas, just found out today that I have tear in both knees. Unsure how it’s even possible. Anyone have experience with this shit? Can they heal on their own? Do surgery or dont do it. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Look into wolverine peptide stack. It has helped me with alot of injuries.
 
Seen it in dozens of clients. Surgery and recovery are pretty simple. But good luck still sir.
 
Decided on in injections. Was told Thursday too much wear and tear inside to repair. I said make me unloader braces to keep me going through fire season. I have to work to keep folks property safe. I cut timber that is on fire most of the days to save structures. I have to keep going
 
I went from being told I have torn Minescus in both knees along with bone spurs and arthritis to being told I still have the bone spurs and arthritis, but I have level 4 degradation of the cartilage between my knees. Basically, the reason I'm in pain is I have no cartilage between my knees so I'm basically bone on bone. The bones rub together and cause pain. The doctors won't prescribe anything for pain for this injury because they say if you can't feel the pain, you can make the injury even worse. Not sure if that's the case for you or not.

So this went from a couple simple surgeries to complete knee replacements. Artificial knees only last about fifteen years too so that kind of sucks, but at least it's an option at some point.

To the OP, have you tried cortisone (steroid) shots yet to reduce inflammation yet? These can be given once every 3 months if necessary.
