Meniscus Repair

Greg Evans December 23rd, 2014

The meniscus is a piece of the cartilage in the knee that stabilizes and cushions the joint, protecting your knee from wear. A tear in this cartilage is one of the most common knee injuries, especially in older athletes, as the cartilage becomes weaker with age. Meniscus tears are common in both contact and non-contact sports, and in some cases, the cartilage can break loose and cause the knee to lock up.

Treatment Protocol: The AcuKnee is an extremely effective treatment option for post meniscus repair, however the meniscus has to be cleaned out and repaired prior to treatment with the AcuKnee.
