Case Summary  |  knee dislocation

i dislocated my left knee in 2006 while playing soccer in the beach, was unable to walk for 2 months, but with physical therapy and exercise i was able to use both knees again, like maybe 5 months ago my right knee started swelling up after long walks, so i was told that i tore my meniscus because of overuse, like apparently i lean more in my right leg than the left because im still afraid of using my left leg too much, so i was told to lose weight, get my both knees stronger and use knee braces for the rest of my life.
Today im still battling the swelling but the knee braces has made it better, my knees dont swell up as much now and im walking almost every day plus losing weight has helped a lot..

after the left knee dislocation, maybe 2 years after my right knee started giving me problems, apparently my meniscus was torn because i use this leg more than my left one because of the dislocation. so i was told to lose weight, start walking, get the knees stronger and use knee braces on both knees for the rest of my life.. it has worked so far , the weight losing has helped a lot and the braces prevent the swelling on my right knee
