Ortho evaluation: Pain after meniscus surgery does not necessarily mean that knee replacement is needed. Evaluation by an orthopedist, and probable repeat MRI will be needed, unless the knee arthritis has progressed significantly. Repeat knee arthroscopy, injections, PT, or even partial knee replacement may be options before full knee replacement. Evaluation by ortho required.
