If the preoperative meniscus damage is mild, it can basically return to normal after surgery. If the preoperative meniscus damage is severe, the postoperative functional recovery may be affected.
1. Less severe meniscus injury: If the meniscus injury is less severe before surgery, through standardized rehabilitation exercises after surgery, the knee joint can generally return to normal function, no longer swollen and painful, and return to the normal level.
2. Heavier meniscus damage: If the meniscus damage is heavier before surgery, such as a complete tear or fragmentation, it may affect the joint function after surgery and make the weight bearing level of the joint different from that of normal people.
After meniscus surgery, we should carry out standardized rehabilitation training under the guidance of doctors, avoiding strenuous exercise and excessive weight bearing, which is conducive to the recovery of joint function.
