Arthroscopic meniscus surgery is a minimally invasive procedure used to repair or remove damaged tissue in the knee joint. During the surgery, a small camera called an arthroscope is inserted through tiny incisions, allowing the surgeon to visualize and treat the problem without the need for a large incision.

This procedure is commonly used to treat meniscus tears, which can occur due to injury or degenerative conditions. The surgeon may either repair the torn meniscus using sutures or remove the damaged portion of the meniscus, depending on the type and severity of the tear.

Benefits of arthroscopic meniscus surgery include shorter recovery times, reduced post-operative pain, and lower risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery. Patients typically undergo physical therapy following the procedure to regain strength and range of motion in the knee.

I had a total hip replacement in January, 2007. I was an avid tennis player until I could not move at all on the court. That was in the fall of 2005. I attempted some alternative treatments for over a year. Although the pain decreased in my day to day life, I could not do anything athletic. After the surgery, I played golf, walking the course in March, two months after the surgery. I started hitting tennis balls in June but could not move very well. I slowly improved my strength and flexibility over the next year. It probably took 1.5 to 2 years where I felt totally comfortable and confident. My "bad hip" became my good hip. It's been four years now and I am still playing singles tennis. My range and speed are decreased but much of that is due to age anyway (I am 63). But I still have fun and am competitive at the 3.5 level. Recently, some groin pain. That has come and gone. I am still playing but mindful. I do exercises and stretches to keep myself going. I do not do much jogging at all. I find my hip bothers my much more if I ran than play tennis. I do elliptical training which brings no pain at all.
