    hey,
    has anyone torn their meniscus and could tell me how long you had to pause with your pole training?
    my doctor is suspecting that i have torn my meniscus.
    on tuesday i will get finally my MRI done. so far i have been resting the past 2 weeks, i dont dare me to stretch or to do anything on the pole as i am not sure if i will cause more damage. i also hope once the MRI is done that my doctor will be able to tell me for how long i need to rest and what i can and cannot do meanwhile. but i was wondering if anyone has gone through that before.

    Hey, I recently had this injury. I’m currently post-op and in physical therapy. They are expecting 2-3 months total time out before they clear me for pole, but will depend on how physical therapy goes.

    hi,
    thank you for your reply.
    i am sorry to hear that you had to go through that and i hope you will be fit soon again! 🙂
    i am really frustrated at the moment.
    i injured me 3 weeks ago and as soon as i hurt me i went to see my family doctor as i knew from the very first moment this is something serious! and he told me i should see a orthopedist as he is suspecting that it is a meniscal tear.
    3 weeks after my accident i will finally see the orthopedist.
    i am worried that i have to wait another few weeks for my surgery in case i have to go through that.
    the health system here where i live currently sucks!
    in my home country i would have gotten an appointment the next day and surgery in the same week.
