L Knee, Other

2010-11-25 – 2011-05-02

Grade: 4

Only got half a mile into the 3 mile Kirkwood Turkey Trot when my left knee started hurting bad enough for me to drop out. I couldn't put my own sock on for the next four days due to the pain and stiffness. Limped severely for a week. I worry that my left knee now has a cartilage tear similar to what I went through with the right knee a year ago.

Had partial meniscectomy surgery in Feb. Started on the stationary bike in March. Been running without pain in knee for a couple weeks now. I guess I can call this injury "recovered."
