How long is the recovery from meniscectomy?

Quick: The recovery varies from patient to patient, but overall it is quick. Most patients will have some swelling after surgery and some pain for days to a few weeks. Your doctor should get you exercising shortly after surgery and allow you to resume activities as you can tolerate. Many resume their sporting activities by 3 weeks after surgery.Ke.

Knee recovery: Recovery from meniscectomy can be variable; this may depend on your bmi, associated arthritic findings and response to physical therapy.
