Time and rest : Bone marrow edema or bme results from injury or inflammation to bone usually near a joint. In most cases the body can heal bme by removing the source of irritation, e.g. Stop running and jumping if related to a stress fracture in knee or have a torn meniscus fragment removed if that is the underlying cause. There is a new surgical treatment for bme of knee when all else fails.
