Enhancing the Cheerios Effect
Tumblr media
The Cheerios in your morning cereal clump together with one another and the bowl's wall due to an attractive force caused by the curvature of their menisci. A recent study looks at how this effect changes when you're pulling objects out of the liquid. (Image credit: Cheerios - D. Streit, experiment - H. Bense et al.; research credit: H.

My daughter is bringing a rented wheel chair over tomorrow. Putting weight on my left knee is very painful, stabbing. Doc can't give pain meds but wants me to keep using the leg/walking. I told the nurse without pain control thats not happening. Fun times.

*SURGERY UPDATE*
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hi guys! I'm now recuperating after my 4th knee surgery. They had to perform meniscusectomy (cutting out my meniscus as it was too broken to be stitched).
Everything went well but it turns out that the 5th medical procedure is necessary. It will happen in about 6 months or so.
I still haven't had a chance to catch up with Tumblr but I'll be back.
Love you worlds,
Debs

A 2024 article in the journal Orthopedic Reviews says, “PRP proved to decrease the time to return to sports among a group who did PRP injection with physiotherapy compared to the control group that underwent rehabilitation alone.”

Symptom Of Meniscus Tear
A meniscus tear is a common knee injury that can occur due to sports activities, sudden twists, or degenerative changes in the knee joint. Understanding the symptoms of a meniscus tear is crucial for timely diagnosis and appropriate treatment. Let's delve into the key indicators:
Tumblr media
1. Pain: One of the most common symptoms of a meniscus tear is pain along the joint line of the knee. This pain may be sharp or dull and can worsen with movement, especially bending or twisting the knee.
2. Swelling: Swelling in the knee joint is another hallmark symptom of a meniscus tear. The knee may become swollen within hours or days of the injury and may feel tender to the touch.
3. Stiffness: Meniscus tears can lead to stiffness in the knee joint, making it difficult to fully extend or flex the knee. This stiffness may be particularly noticeable in the morning or after periods of inactivity.
4. Catching or Locking Sensation: Some individuals with a meniscus tear may experience a catching or locking sensation in the knee joint. This occurs when a torn fragment of the meniscus gets caught between the joint surfaces, inhibiting smooth movement.
5. Popping or Clicking: A popping or clicking sensation in the knee joint, especially at the time of injury, may indicate a meniscus tear. This sensation can occur with movement or weight-bearing activities.
6. Instability: In more severe cases of meniscus tear, the knee joint may feel unstable or give way during activity. This instability can affect mobility and increase the risk of further injury.
7. Difficulty Bearing Weight: Some individuals may have difficulty bearing weight on the affected leg due to pain or instability in the knee joint. This can impact daily activities such as walking or standing.
If you experience any of these symptoms, it's essential to seek medical evaluation from a healthcare professional. Treatment options for a meniscus tear may include rest, ice, compression, physical therapy, or in severe cases, surgical intervention. Early diagnosis and appropriate management are key to preventing long-term complications and facilitating a full recovery. Remember, listening to your body and seeking prompt medical attention can make a significant difference in the outcome of a meniscus tear injury. Don't ignore the symptoms—take action for your knee health and overall well-being.

Meniscus Surgery
What Is The Meniscus?
Meniscus are two pieces of cartilage inside your knee. They lie between your thighbone (femur) and shinbone (tibia). Meniscus act like shock absorbers for your knee, providing cushioning for your bones and knee joint. Meniscus also increases surface area of contact between femur and tibia thus preventing weight to be concentrated on a small area.
