Article Excerpts About Symptoms of Meniscus injury:
Generally, when people injure a meniscus, they feel some
pain, particularly when the knee is straightened. If the pain is mild,
the person may continue moving. Severe pain may occur if a fragment of
the meniscus catches between the femur and the tibia. Swelling may occur
soon after injury if blood vessels are disrupted, or swelling may occur
several hours later if the joint fills with fluid produced by the joint
lining (synovium) as a result of inflammation. If the synovium is
injured, it may become inflamed and produce fluid to protect itself.
This makes the knee swell. Sometimes, an injury that occurred in the
past but was not treated becomes painful months or years later,
particularly if the knee is injured a second time. After any injury, the
knee may click, lock, or feel weak. Although symptoms of meniscal injury
may disappear on their own, they frequently persist or return and
require treatment.
