Re: degenerate menisci: end of aikido training?
Mr. Smith,
I think you are off-base with your disagreement. Most physicians and physical therapists simply have no idea what aikido requires and are thus unable to give their best treatment or advice without being informed. It would be foolish to "hide the ball" from them in hopes that they won't give you undesired direction. By giving them the best information possible, they, in turn, can give you their best advice and treatment. Both my surgeon and PT gave me specific advice to protect my knee and worked me through a variety of exercises that would help prevent injuries in the future.
