If you have had knee pain recently, or periodically for months or years, it’s possible that you have a meniscus tear, also referred to as “torn cartilage.” A meniscus tear often occurs during a twisting or pivoting motion with the foot planted on the ground – for example, when playing tennis or squatting in the garden – and it can also occur from lifting. A tear can occur at any time during life, but it is rarely seen in young children. With age, the menisci become worn and may tear more easily.
