Why does the ankle hurt after a meniscus repair?

Ankle pain after meniscus repair may be due to incomplete recovery, prolonged activity limitation and inadequate functional training. Depending on the individual situation and the severity of symptoms, the recovery time for patients varies. If the repair is not fully recovered, the symptoms of ankle pain may occur. At this time, patients should pay attention to quietness and maintain rest, as well as pay attention to adequate nutritional supply, so as to promote recovery. In addition, due to prolonged restriction of movement, it may lead to muscle stiffness triggering pain during activities. In addition, if adequate functional training is not carried out. It may also lead to the occurrence of scar adhesion at the knee joint, which may cause pain symptoms at the ankle. The patient should be instructed by the doctor to carry out an appropriate amount of functional training to alleviate the pain symptoms during activities. If the ankle still hurts after meniscus repair, you should go to the hospital for follow-up and ask the doctor’s opinion.
