When I was 23, I had a torn medial meniscus prior to the advent of arthroscopic surgery and the debris was floating throughout my right knee. The Surgeon -- the head surgeon for an SEC football team -- took out the "floaters," but kept the shaving to a minimum. He gave me a list of exercises to build up all the small muscles around my knee to reduce strain and stress. I did them religiously.
My right knee has performed just fine over the years though double-digit number of marathons and half-marathons and regular basketball leagues that I still play in, right up to this morning (just got home). I've got to play a few less games than I used to and Monday's are guaranteed to be soreness. But I'm still chugging away, setting screens, grabbing rebounds, hitting a few jump hoots and taking flops the way Muffet taught me. Call me a lucky one.
