A 28 year old male presented to our clinic with knee pain and stiffness after injury and was diagnosed with meniscus tear by his doctor. He presented with difficulty in standing, walking, squatting, climbing stairs, running and playing sports. He was initially reluctant since he thought Physiotherapy would not help him and only did so because his Doctors asked him to. He thought that surgery was the only option he had. Nevertheless, he started with physiotherapy and slowly started seeing the difference after each session. He could now walk pain free and his mobility improved as well, that gave him more motivation to continue with his treatment program and to give his best. After completing a full rehab of 16 sessions he was back to being fully functional, did not need surgery and gradually tapered into sports. He was pleasantly surprised and was glad that he gave physiotherapy a chance!
