How to treat medial meniscus injury

Medial meniscus damage is usually caused by torsional violence, etc., which can cause pain in the medial knee joint. Severe cases cause patients to be unable to walk and show interlocking feelings in the knee joint. Treatment after medial meniscus damage needs to be selected according to the degree of meniscus damage and the patient's clinical symptoms. If the medial meniscus is damaged in the first and second degrees, and the patient's knee joint pain is not too obvious. At this time, we can use non-surgical treatment in the early stage, appropriate immobilization of the knee joint, the affected limb to prevent walking weight and strenuous exercise. When the medial meniscus is a third degree injury, the knee joint pain is more obvious. Severe will show interlocking feeling, then we usually perform arthroscopic meniscectomy or partial meniscectomy for treatment.
