Meniscus injury of 3rd degree is a serious meniscus injury and usually requires surgery. After surgery, knee flexion and extension training, straight leg raising training and static squatting exercises can be performed.
1. Knee flexion and extension training: knee flexion and extension training can be carried out 24 hours after the operation to maintain the mobility of the joint, which can help to improve the mobility of the joint and avoid muscle atrophy.
2. Straight leg raising training: patients lie on their backs, keep the knee straight and then use the power of the thigh to raise the lower limb, repeat to exercise the strength of the quadriceps muscle.
3. Static squatting exercise: back against the wall, feet apart, shoulder-width apart, gradually stretch forward, and form a certain distance between the center of gravity. Make the long axis of the calf perpendicular to the ground, the angle between the thigh and calf should not be less than 90 degrees, so as not to increase the joint pressure. This training helps to maintain the stability of the knee joint and enhance the strength of the quadriceps.
Patients with meniscus injuries are advised to seek timely medical attention and use appropriate treatment and rehabilitation under the guidance of a doctor.
