I'm sorry to hear about your reoccuring problems. I didn't know it could keep happening. Something to watch for. In my case
1. I was concerned whether arthritis was setting in. (yes, it's present) 
2. Why the sudden onset. I've been doing the same basic movements for quite some time, in fact for years. (Maybe bone chips, maybe something else, x-rays and maybe an MRI should tell more)
In your case, what leg/lower body exercises are you doing now? |
Sorry about the arthritis!
My knees don't bother me much at all - For me, my knees can handle: Heavy squats, RDL, CDL, leg press, walking lunges, leg extension, leg curls.
Knees CANNOT handle: bulg split squats, glute ham raises or sissy squats.
Last time I had x rays I didn't have any signs of arthritis.
My tears occured when :
I was 17 (was a gymnast) doing a front flip
I was 30 - lifting a heavy toddler out of the car -twisted my knee
I was 33 - Don't know - just woke up in severe pain - by that time I knew what the deal was...
Hope things workout for you...any chance the meniscus could have torn again? It also could be floating cartilage...
