Meniscus Tear Coral Springs
Meniscus Tear Coral Springs
If you’re in Coral Springs and experiencing knee pain, swelling, or a locking sensation after twisting or bending your leg, you might be dealing with a meniscus tear. This common knee injury affects the cartilage that cushions and stabilizes your knee joint. At Theracave, we offer personalized physical therapy plans designed to treat meniscus tears without surgery when possible. Our treatments focus on reducing pain, restoring mobility, and strengthening the surrounding muscles to support healing and prevent further damage.
The meniscus acts as a shock absorber between your thigh bone and shin bone, and when it’s torn—whether from sports, a misstep, or repetitive strain—it can seriously affect your ability to move comfortably. At Theracave in Coral Springs, we evaluate the extent of your injury and create a rehab plan tailored to your needs. With early intervention and expert care, many people recover fully without the need for surgery, regaining strength, stability, and confidence in their knee.

Q&A
What is a meniscus tear and how does it happen?
A meniscus tear is a rupture in the cartilage of the knee, usually caused by twisting or pivoting while the foot is planted. It can result from sports injuries, trauma, or wear and tear over time.
Can a meniscus tear heal without surgery?
Yes. Small or partial tears—especially on the outer edge—can often heal with rest and physical therapy. Larger or complex tears may require surgery, but even post-surgery, physical therapy is crucial for recovery.
How long does recovery take after a meniscus tear?
For non-surgical cases, recovery may take 6–8 weeks with consistent therapy. Post-surgical rehab can take 3–5 months depending on the procedure and severity of the tear.
Can I return to sports or exercise after a meniscus tear?
Yes. Most people return to their activities after completing rehab. A structured physical therapy plan focuses on strengthening, mobility, and knee control to reduce the risk of reinjury.
