A member asked:
If i have torn medial and lateral meniscus and a sprained mcl from auto accident, what is the chance of long term stiffness or sorenss?

Let me explain: Both meniscuses could be shaved to smooth margin and the sprain of the mcl usually heal with no problems, i doubt if you have a good pt you have any big problems.

Possible.: These need to be evaluated by an orthopaedic surgeon. Might require surgery. If not repaired may lead to intermittent pain or swelling.
