A member asked:

I just had an ultrasound on my knee, due to pain. results said i have meniscal abnormalities. what would treatment be for this/ what does that mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends on: extent of abnormality and your symptoms. But an MRI is probably a more precise test for this, especially if surgery is an option.
