My knee shifted on the outside three years ago. It wasn't a twist, but looked like my femur shifted to the outside. My security camera captured it as I was walking. There was a very loud crack and immediate, intense pain. I could not walk flat footed for a couple of weeks, only tippy toes. I was told it was a meniscus tear. I had a fluid aspiration then and again three years later. I have no pain, but cracking noises in the morning. Given the cracking noise when the injury occurred, I thought it was a ligament. I can try your exercises and see if the noises disappear. Thanks.
The only time I've ever seen something like that is from a posterolateral corner injury (lateral collateral ligament, popliteus muscle, popliteofibular ligament). Glad it's gotten better. If you just get cracking the first few steps in the morning, that's not a big deal. If there's persistent pain and/or instability, it'd be worth getting further checked out.
@More4Life thank you for your response. Also, my knee has never locked up or felt like it wanted to, which is what I've read is typical of a meniscus tear. It feels a little unstable at times when I've been immobile for a while, but I bend it a few times to make sure everything is working before I put weight on it!! I'm grateful that there's no pain, and I'm trying to strengthen my legs to support the knees better. I had an order for PT, but had no pain, so I didn't use it. I may go back to reevaluate and get another PT order. Given the symptoms, I'd sure like to get something more definitive as to what actually happened. Thanks again, I appreciate it.
Thank you so much for sharing the above . Unfortunately I am not able to both ascend or descend stairs. Lesion in both my spine hip
Will this help for not getting a knee surgery, or replacement?
These could certainly be helpful in prevention, but there are a lot of different factors affecting your cartilage health, so I can't say that doing this alone would prevent a knee surgery.
