What Does a Meniscus Repair Treat?
The meniscus is a piece of soft tissue that sits on the top of the tibia and cushions the knee by evenly distributing weight while standing, walking, running, and jumping. Falls and sports injuries are usually the cause of meniscus tears. Symptoms include the following:
Clicking or catching sensation
Pain
Stiffness
Swelling
Weight-bearing and physical activity make symptoms worse. Patients who experience symptoms and would like to receive a diagnosis and treatment plan may make an appointment with our Board-Certified and Fellowship-Trained knee specialists.
