How does one know if they have a torn meniscus? i had a mri and it said i a displacement if the meniscus root does that mean a tear of the meniscus?

You have a tear: Your MRI has confirmed your presumed symptoms of sharp based pain typically medially or posteriorly based made worse with bending twisting or pivoting. Gonna probably need surgery...
