A torn meniscus is one of the most common knee injuries. Any activity that causes you to forcefully twist or rotate your knee, especially when putting your full weight on it, can lead to a torn meniscus.
A torn meniscus can result from any activity that causes you to forcefully twist or rotate your knees, such as aggressive pivoting or sudden stops and turns. Even kneeling, deep squatting, or lifting something heavy can sometimes lead to a torn meniscus.
In older adults, degenerative changes of the knee can contribute to a torn meniscus with little or no trauma.
