Quick turns, pivots, or sudden stops during sports can strain your knee. One sharp move the wrong way—and the meniscus gives in.
When you bend too low or carry more than your body supports, pressure builds in the knee. This stress can easily tear the weakened cushion inside.
Over time, your knee simply wears down. The meniscus becomes thinner and weaker. Everyday movements—even standing up—can lead to a painful tear.
You may not notice it right away, but even small, repeated pressure on the knee—like kneeling too often—can add up until one day, it just hurts.
