Hi,
I had a partial medial meniscus removal two weeks ago, the consultant has stated that I also ave a significant tear to my PCL, but he believes with intensive Physio & rehab I should make a full recovery.

To be honest I am struggling, I am in a lot of pain & m knee keeps cracking & popping when I move about. I don't have any crutches or a brace for my knee.

I feel I need some sort of support for the knee as it seems very unstable, is it advisable to use some sort of knee brace and if so can anyone recommend a suitable one or this type of injury.

Any advice would be gratefully appreciated, it getting unbearable

Hi Robin hanks for the reply,

All I was told was that they had removed a substantial amount of meniscus but enough was left to have a viable joint. I also had most of the other meniscus removed in 2001, however  I didn't have any problems with that one.

I see the Physio on Tuesday, hopefully he will sort a brace out for me as I'm going on a family holiday next weekend which will involve a lot of walking about so hopefully a brace would help.

Thanks again for the reply I appreciate it
