Meniscal Tear of the Knee
A meniscus tear is exactly what it sounds like—a tear in the meniscal tissue. The tear can be partial or complete and can be mild, moderate, or severe. A mild or minor tear is typically a small, incomplete tear that causes some pain and swelling that goes away within a few weeks. A moderate tear causes pain and swelling that can grow worse or come and go depending on activity. This can be a partial tear that requires treatment. A severe tear means that the meniscus is completely torn and has moved into the joint space, causing the knee to catch, pop, lock, or give way. This requires treatment.
