Hey guys, does anyone here train BJJ/grappling (or any sport/activity) and experience issues with acute knee pain/injury? I’ve had reoccurring knee injuries (left side) where it feels like there is a shift in my patella during deep knee flexion accompanied with acute pain. I’m not exactly sure what part of the knee is injured, but I believe it is a reoccurring meniscus tear. Anyways, I’ve never gotten it looked at because I’m usually able to train after a day or two. I am also able to perform deep air squats right after the injury (happens every couple of months randomly), and though it feels a little “unstable” right after, it doesn’t seem to cause too much pain, and I’m able to walk fine after a day or two. How concerned would you guys be? Should I train normally and not worry about it (what I usually do) or should I seek professional help/treatment since it seems to be reoccurring. Would love some input on this!
Thanks for the help!
