I've had ACL and meniscus surgery back in August, and then in December, I slipped and fell. My knee's not swollen, but it bent all the way back, which hurt for a couple of days. It's been a few weeks now, and I'm back at the gym. I'm pretty sure it's not my ACL, but I'm worried about the meniscus. There are minor pains, nothing too severe, but I don't have health insurance. I can jog and jump, but there's something a bit off in my knee. How can I tell if I might have torn my meniscus?

I have a 9mm full thickness ACL tear and need surgery - what type of specialist should I see for this procedure? I'm a bit unsure whether to go with an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in sports medicine or a general orthopedic surgeon since they both seem to handle ACL repairs
for an orthopedic specialist if necessary. Make sure that your doctor is medically qualified to treat your ACL tear completely. ACL tear repair treatment and surgery are performed by experienced orthopedic surgeons, so general or family practitioners aren't ideal for treatment.
