With all due respect that doesn't sound like the typical mechanism of injury for a ligament tear or a cartilage/meniscus tear. "Pops" aren't necessarily a bad thing nor do they signify an injury. How old is your son?

Son is 18. If it's meniscus I'd be not so worried as I had both of mine cleaned out last year (one in October and one in December) and it was a piece of cake.

He said he climbed into the tractor ok (on his way home due to getting rained out) ... guess he's lucking out into not leveling bins tomorrow .. the climb into the bins and then back up and out isn't easy. Think the tractor is all hand operated and no gas pedals.

eta: Just got home .. said getting in/out of the tractor pretty much sucked and using the brake wasn't too bad. I just didn't have a distinct "pop" with either of my tears.

He's a tennis player and is a senior ... I'm hoping best case is some conservative treatment and he'll be back at everything in no time.
