Have you ever noticed that doctors seem addicted to hitting people on the knee with their little reflex-testing hammers?
They really get a kick out of it…
Jokes aside though, let me say this first: If you have a torn meniscus, stop reading this article, call MSK Doctors at 0330 001 0048 or visit them online at MSKDoctors.com, and book an appointment with a specialist, right now.
Seriously, if you schedule an appointment right now, you can probably get in to see an expert tomorrow, or later this week.
You don’t need a referral, or anything really. You can schedule your own appointments, with no waitlist, and they’ll get you in right away for a consultation, diagnosis, or even treatment.
All you have to do is click this link, https://www.mskdoctors.com and then click “Book Online” on the top right corner of their website.
Okay, now that I assume you’ve already made an appointment, let me tell you what you can expect.
The private clinic specialises in musculoskeletal conditions of all types, but they also have specialists that focus on particular areas of the body, or common injuries. Assuming you’re here about a knee meniscus, I would suggest you talk to their knee specialist, Prof. Lee.
Professor Lee is not only the founder of the clinic, he’s also a double-board certified orthopaedic surgeon and an expert in sports and regenerative therapies. While Prof. Lee is known for his work treating UK premiership footballers, he’s also a specialist in the knee, hip, ankle, and Achilles tendon, and has been trained in several techniques that are not yet available through the NHS.
The first thing you’ll hear at your appointment is that if you’re experiencing sharp pains in the knee, which may be accompanied by swelling or stiffness, there’s a good chance you’ve damaged your meniscus. In some cases, this type of injury may even prevent your knee from being able to straighten fully, or it could stop you from walking altogether.
That’s okay though, well, it’s not good – but you’re in the right place.
The MSK Doctors clinic has access to several diagnostic options, including an Open MRI scanner that is the only device of its kind in the county. This scanner is able to provide detailed scans of your knee even while it is in motion, and they can get you in for a scan right away because they simply don’t believe in waiting lists.
After your scan, if that’s the next step suggested by their team, you’ll get digital copies of your results, and you can even schedule an appointment to go over your results slide-by-slide with a specialist. So far, so good – but now is when we get to the complicated bit.
There is no single treatment that is ideal for all meniscus tears, no “one-size-fits-all” solution.
That’s why the specialists at MSK Doctors offer a wide range of treatments, including several regenerative and non-surgical options. The optimal treatment for you will be determined based on your specific injury and the best advice of Prof. Lee. He’s not just the clinic’s knee specialist either, he’s also the author of the book, “Diagnosing The Cause Of A Locked Knee.”
Here’s a small excerpt I copied from the clinic’s website, which might explain things better, “Many treatment options are available for a meniscus tear. Sound knowledge and understanding of its mechanics and biology are the keys to success. Prof. Lee and the MSK Doctors team have invested in the latest technology in knee science which can track knee movement to provide appropriate treatments for meniscus issues.“
In summary, I can only say this.
If you, or someone you love, has a torn meniscus – don’t wait.
The injury can only get worse if you leave it unattended, so book an appointment right away, with no waiting list, and no referral.
You can schedule it right now, by calling 0330 001 0048 or visiting https://www.mskdoctors.com
