Knee problems since high school also. Tore meniscus in college, had it repaired; tore it again, repaired again. It tore 3rd time about 12 years ago. Went to Physical therapy, got into biking and strengthened the ligaments and muscles all around. Have some discomfort at times but Aleve and icing help greatly. If you can, see about getting an MRI to assess what damage there is and what best course of treatment might be. My ortho doc is a big proponent of "RICE = rest, ice, compression, elevation".
