Preventing meniscus tears involves adopting practices that protect and strengthen the knee joint. This includes engaging in exercises that bolster the muscles around the knee, reducing the risk of injury during physical activities. Proper warm-up routines are also essential to prepare the knee for exercise and sports.
Additionally, understanding and applying correct techniques during physical activities can significantly reduce the chances of meniscus injuries. For athletes and individuals involved in high-impact sports, wearing appropriate protective gear is crucial.
Regularly performing balance and flexibility exercises can also help in maintaining knee stability and preventing injuries.
