2 yrs after meniscus repair.having sharp pain, not lessened by otc drugs/ice. swelling persists since surgery for entire 2 yrs/ xray showed nothing.

Repeat MRI: Possible re-tear vs failure of repair if procedure was truly meniscal repair. Repeat MRI would seem reasonable at this point. Discuss with your orthopedist.
