My diagnosis:
MEDIAL COMPARTMENT: Complex tearing of the medial meniscus including radial tearing of the free edge and red-white junction and horizontal tear of the posterior horn extending to the tibial articular surface without displaced meniscal tissue. Mild mechanical edema in the outer tibial plateau. Partial thickness chondral loss.
I tore my meniscus in January after training for & running my 6th marathon. Years of long distance running finally caught up to me. So far this year, I have not been running. I have tried to do a lot of low impact walking & focus more on strength training. No surgery, no therapy, no PT. Just 9 months of comparative rest.
