Possible meniscus tear?

Well, about a year ago I had torn my meniscus and had surgery on it and had some of it removed. A month after that surgery, I started marching band and only iced during music rehearsals. Later in the year, my knee had started to hurt again while doing things. I also did a lot on the wii fit one day and that made my knee hurt a bunch as well. This summer though, I have been swimming a lot and there would be nights I would get home and my knee would ache for more than 30 minutes. I have now started marching band again, and it now hurts very much like it did before. One day it ached almost the whole time that it was so bad I cried. It hurts on the inside of my left knee kinda close to the patella but not quit. So, I am wondering, could this be another meniscus tear?*

Possible, but the symptoms you describe and the lack of specific incident which first caused pain suggest it may be something else.
It may be to do with muscle imbalances post surgery. Look at patella femoral pain syndrome on the site.

I have looked that up and it could be a possibility. I just didn't know because the first time when I had a meniscus tear, I had the same pain that I am having now except worse this time around.
