Netball star Lynsey Gallagher hopes to be nearing the end of a frustrating two-years out through injury, but says she has to be realistic about recovery from invasive knee surgery.
The Sirens and Scottish Thistles star damaged her lateral meniscus in February 2021, and when it flared up again in September, underwent microfracture surgery in November, which is an articular cartilage repair surgical technique that involves creating tiny fractures in the underlying bone.
It has been frustrating, and a slog at times, but Gallagher, 30, says she has to be careful with her rehabilitation.
