[kingmyles]

Short and sweet and informative can’t wait to try it on my patient

[kibymcdaniel]

Thank you for explaining about the meniscus.

[mhdwahoud]

you are getting me through my ortho rotation

[kalvasaikiranreddy]

Thank you very much sir for your information it helped me alot in my PT ORTHO exam

[thessthechef]

Lol my name is Thessaly what a coincidence 😂

[cocoslife]

how to instruct the patient to rotate on tibia but not hip or ankle?

[atsifu]

These are great videos. Clear and concise, wish I found these back in med school. Thank you! Oh and you are very handsome lol

Could you have a meniscus tear without any pain and swelling? I have clicking and popping and really minor pain bm that resolved with exercising the surrounding muscles. However knee is still clicking /catching when I walk

[danger]

if the patient feels pain in one direction and not on the other direction, would it pertain to a specific meniscus or ligament?

Hi, First of all thanks for sharing this content,
I had meniscal suture surgery for complex radial rupture of the join of the body with the anterior horn of the lateral meniscus 5 months ago. I am a long-distance runner and 10 days ago I had a new MRI scan to see the healing and a hyperintense stroke emerged at the junction of the body with the anterior horn. Since surgery, I have a medium sized parameniscal cyst that presents a little pain during the test, however, every week I have been stronger, more flexible, and recently I have been trying plyometrics at therapy sessions but I am still a little concerned about the cyst and the slight pain pricks during the test.

Hey you didn’t mentioned which side rotation will hamper which side meniscus

Hi,
I twisted my knee 7 weeks ago and I still have a pain only during Tesaaly test (internal rotation tibia - pain on medial size od knee). MRI shows nothing. Have you some idea if not meniscus?

[albieoval]

I wonder what the specificity would be if all Apley, McMurray and this one are negative.

It slightly hurts and I'm 14 years old.. I'm also complaining about pain in my knee during quats and wand sitting. What should I do?

[MrPrasanth]

Pain during internal rotation in Thessaly test caused due to medial or lateral meniscus??...is there a way to differentiate individual ligament....

[markdonovan]

I had many tests by physios, but until I got the MRI done there was no confirmed diagnosis. After that I had to have key-hole surgery to clean up the damaged parts of the miniscus.

My biggest mistake was not going to a doctor early to get the confirmed diagnosis and then referral for the operation. This meant that the damage was much more extensive, as a result of almost a year delay after symptoms first presented.

[movania]

I have got grade 1 Meniscus around 5 months ago... and over time my pain is healing drastically due to my intensive care, and unusual stress on the knee. Does this indicates my torn meniscus is getting repaired?

with this can i also do cardio activity? just the elliptical/airwalk? - Please respond! Thanks
