Be seen: I would certainly recommend you be seen in followup. There may be good treatment options for you. For example, one of the reasons a person may have an unsuccessful surgery for a torn meniscus is if they have quite a bit of underlying osteoarthritis that still causes problems despite surgery. A non surgical treatment known as viscosupplementation can help some of these patients.
