Meniscus Repair

Understanding Meniscus Injuries

The meniscus is a crescent-shaped cartilage in the knee that absorbs shock and stabilizes the joint. Tears occur due to sudden twists, heavy impacts, or degenerative changes.

Symptoms of Meniscus Tear

• Pain and swelling in the knee joint
• Locking or catching sensation
• Difficulty in straightening the knee
• Instability or weakness in the joint
