A member asked:
What are some ways to get rid of knee pain from a possible meniscus tear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
MMT: First, find out if it is a significant meniscal tear that would be causing locking or mechanical symptoms. Treatment may include stretching, nsaids, therapy, possible injection, or scope. May need mri/imaging study first.
