I have broken my both knee cartilages. First time when I was 23 and recently when I was 35. Fist knee recovered successfully after some years (I'd say about 5 years). The second injury was 2 years ago and the knee is almost 100% recovered, I feel some little pain only after running 10K and also after playing soccer.

Both injuries were in the outer meniscus. There is a difference in the inner and the outer meniscus (perhaps the inner cannot recover because of less blood flow?). I didn't go to surgery.

Things I can do without any pain whatsoever: running 5K at a fast pace, karate, barbell squat.
