    That doesn't sound right. A torn meniscus is usually a few weeks at best.

    Must have screwed something else up in that knee. It usually does not involve surgery, just rest and strengthening/rehab.

    If you're gonna have any kind of injury to the knee, then this is the best one to have as far as down time goes. Next is the PCL.

    It's actually not a torn meniscus. It's a birth defect, and someone called it a "flipped meniscus". What I heard anyway, for what it's worth.

    I asked around and heard that depending on the severity that rehab of the meniscus takes almost as long as an ACL or MCL. Usually 3 weeks or so of rest is recommended before rehab can start. However, if the meniscus is removed it only takes weeks to recover.

    He will have surgery tomorrow. His knee locked up in practice today.

    It will be 6-8 weeks of rehab. Nothing crazy.

    He'll be just fine. Definitely will be ready by summer.

    Both? :wave: :lol:

    How big could this thing get? I would expect at least one of those two to get it..

    Could we get eight 5-stars? (DREAM)
