Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case.

Due to your injury there is possibility of knee ligament tear injury.
Most commonly meniscus injury occurs.

As per your symptoms you need to do physiotherapy and knee exercises.
If pain persist then you may need to do MRI again to see for any functional defect.

Small meniscus tear can be managed conservatively with physiotherapy with USG and TENS.
Meniscus injury can be managed by arthroscopic repair,and same day you can go home.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
