The menisci cushion the knee joint. Tears can cause pain, swelling, and catching sensations. Physiotherapy may help restore movement and strength alongside medical management.

Common symptoms

  • Pain along the joint line of the knee
  • Swelling within a day of injury
  • Catching, locking, or clicking
  • Stiffness after sitting

How physiotherapy may help

  • Assessment of movement and irritability
  • Range-of-motion and swelling management
  • Progressive strengthening around the knee and hip
  • Graded return to activity

When to seek medical review

Get medical review if the knee locks, gives way, remains markedly swollen, or if you cannot bear weight after injury.
