Meniscus doesnt heal on its own. Yes it is
possible that despite having a meniscus injury
there may me minimal or not symptoms. Not all
Meniscus tears need surgery. Some patients
despite having a tear can carry out normal
activities of daily living with good
physiotherapy. Sometimes the tear is situated in
an area where it can be repaired. Results of
repair are best if it is done within 6 to 8 weeks
from the date of injury. To repair a meniscus you
will need surgery.

How to improve mobility with total knee
replacement surgery
  • It is common among people to develop some kind of
    pain in and around the knee joints at some point
    of time in their lives. The scenario is commonly
    referred to as knee arthritis and can cause
    serious mobility issues like stiffness in leg
    movement and pain. Medications, physiotherapy,
    and diet options are recommended during the
    initial stages. If that helps relieve the
    problem, Gods grace! However, if many scenarios,
    the situation remains static and hence, doctors
    recommend total knee replacement surgery in
    Gurgaon.
