Learn more about what is the meniscus, how it works, the ways it can get injured, and the orthopedic approaches available to treat it. In this episode, we talk with Dr. Gabriel De Leon, board-certified orthopedic surgeon with over 5 years of experience, located in the city of Guadalajara, Jalisco.
The meniscus serves as a crucial shock absorber and stabilizer in the knee joint, facilitating smooth movement and weight distribution. Dr. De Leon illuminates the intricate workings of the meniscus and its integral role in knee functionality.
Most common symptoms of meniscus injury:
Pain when turning the knee, swelling, pain when walking, locking of the knee
Explore the various ways the meniscus can sustain injury, including sudden twists, direct trauma, and degenerative changes over time. Dr. De Leon discusses common symptoms associated with meniscal injuries, such as pain, swelling, and limited range of motion.
