viking Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 At least it's gonna be good to have him back for the Super Bowl 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nozizaki Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 I still can't believe he got hurt. I didn't see anything in the KC game that seemed abnormal. Hopefully the Vikings can pick up another solid TE or two via the waiver wire or a trade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meniscus surgery is 1 of 2 things. 1. Menisectomy= trim/ removal of torn portion. Leaving as much remaining meniscus as possible. Healing is quicker due to nothing being repaired. Recovery from surgical incision, post- operative swelling. 3-6 weeks type recovery 2. Meniscus repair= some form of stitch/ suturing to bring the torn edges of the Meniscus into toght/ close approximated position. Recover is long due to the Meniscus being almost avascular (little to no blood supply). Recovery is above + 4-6 weeks of protected Weightbearing ( brace locked straight and crutches), limited motion to prevent shear frces on repaired Meniscus. Then at around 4-8 weeks low force and limited strengthening..... again to reduce compression + shear forces on repaired Meniscus. Running/ jumping usually around 12 weeks with progression to cutting, change of direction and restoring strength/ power over next 2+ months. Not unusual with a repair to have some form of procedure to promote internal bleeding (hole drilled into bone). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the NFL cancels the NFCCG, I have some terrible news for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
