I took an awkward step and twisted it a few days ago. Itās getting progressively worse. I had a low grade non-surgical tear of the same meniscus about 8 years ago. So Iām familiar with the symptoms and what it feels like.
Itās obviously going to be some time before I can see a doctor. Thatās not me bitching or being selfish. My little knee injury should be of no concern to any medical professional right now. They have bigger problems to deal with. Nevertheless I need to look out for my own health and do the best I can on my own for now and deal with it.
One of my brothers is a physical therapist. He sent me a bunch of PT exercises to strengthen and rehab the area. He said to avoid high impact stuff like running for a while.
I asked him about cycling and he said it was fine but to avoid high power intervals or hill type of riding.
I have a Model E Concept2 rower but the constant knee flexion and extension has me a bit worried.
So whatās your advice and experience as to cycling and rowing?
The timing reminds me of Lloyd Bridges character in Airplane. š
