Meniscal Injury

How is the treatment of meniscus injury?

The degenerative meniscus injury (due to age or strain) is usually treated with non-surgical, while lesions due to trauma are treated with surgery.
In traumatic injury, part of the meniscus can stand out and bring in the knee, causing pain and locking.
New meniscus injured trauma may increase the trace of the meniscus lesion becoming unrecoverable.
Depending on the characteristics of the injury by arthroscopy, it is a suture (point or stitches), partial meniscectomy (removal of only the damaged part and unrecoverable), and even the meniscal transplant.
Typically, the return to work occurs within the first week after surgery.
