A member asked:
I have an oblique tear of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus, what is the treatment for that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: Arthroscopic surgery to repair the torn meniscus if the tear is in a location that can be repaired or excision of the loose piece of the meniscus if the symptoms are that of pain, clicking or giving out of the knee. If you are not having any significant problems you can choose to leave it alone till symptoms recur. Good luck.
