Look, we can all just agree on the fact that, at some point in time, Jon Bon Jovi had a doctor examine his leg.

The end.

Lets get to debating over which knee it was. Lets have a poll, right or left?

I'm taking the left knee! I'll bet $10 on it...any takers?

So ... Jon had surgery to repair a torn meniscus around 2000 ... a torn calf muscle in 2010 ... another surgery for torn meniscus / MCL (depending upon what you read) in 2011. Anyone know if this was all on the same leg? Or is he just prone to leg injuries?

His left feels right

He also had stress fractures in both his legs on the NJ tour.

Not only did Jon tear up his voice from years of singing, he tore up his body running around stages for years in heeled boots (I think he now essentially wears dress 'basketball' type shoes), jumping off speakers, falling to his knees, etc. The massages and ice packs after shows aren't just for fun but for pain. Truthfully, in the old clips, to me he sounds out-of-breath a lot of the time. No wonder he used to give long introductions before songs or have the band play long solos--he needed to gather his strength. In the recent clips I've seen he seems to be connecting with the audience fine. He is moving, he isn't a statute.
