Symptoms of Meniscus Tear Injury
- Pain along the knee joint — often sharp during twisting, squatting, or pivoting.
- Swelling or stiffness — may appear right away or develop gradually over several hours.
- Catching, popping, or clicking sensations — especially when bending or straightening the knee.
- Locking of the knee — feeling like the knee gets “stuck” and won’t fully bend or straighten.
- A feeling of instability — the knee may “give way” under weight.
- Reduced range of motion — difficulty fully bending or straightening the knee.
- Tenderness along the joint line — soreness when pressing around the sides of the knee.
