Torn Meniscus advice
A question to anyone who has surgically repaired a torn meniscus:
I have quite possibly torn mine. I am riding cross country starting June 17. My orthopedist thinks that an 8 week recovery would be no problem, but my physical therapist said that there was no way this was possible, and I would be lucky to be able to ride strenuously in 12 weeks. Has anyone experienced this, and do you know what the recovery time is like?
Any advice/experiences would be much appreciated!
Thanks, Elana
