In this episode, Maryke demonstrates some of the most common exercises used for treating meniscus tears. The video is divided into early-stage rehab exercises (for when your knee is still very painful and swollen) and later-stage exercises.👉 Note: These exercises might not be right for you. Please consult a physiotherapist to check whether they are appropriate for your level of fitness and your injury.🌟 Need help with an injury? You’re welcome to consult one of the team at SIP online via video call for an assessment of your injury and a tailored treatment plan.📽️ Other episodes in our Meniscus Tear Series:▶️ Treatment for Medial Meniscus Tears▶️ Treatment for Lateral Meniscus Tears▶️ Swimming with a Meniscus Tear▶️ Best Knee Braces for Meniscus Tears📚Chapters in this episode:00:00:00 Introduction00:01:30 General rehab guidelines00:05:59 EARLY-STAGE REHAB EXERCISES FOR MENISCUS TEARS00:07:08 Knee flexion/extension00:09:27 End range extension00:11:47 Extension over towel roll00:15:04 Knee extension in chair00:17:21 Hamstring curls00:18:58 Calf raises00:20:33 Hamstring stretch00:23:16 Calf stretch00:24:59 LATER-STAGE REHAB EXERCISES FOR MENISCUS TEARS00:29:09 How rehab progression works00:30:42 Squat progressions00:30:44 – 1.
