Hi,
this is the result of not taken treatment in time,if he went through investigations when he got accident,this complications might not have occurred .
Any how now he should consult Orthopedic surgeon along with MRI report.
With the treatment he will be alright.

Hi Bikash,
You need to fix an appointment with an Orthopaedician, especially an arthroscopy surgeon (key hole surgeon). Depending upon the severity of the tear, the following surgeries would be likely:
- partial meniscectomy i.e removal of a part of the meniscus
- total meniscectomy
- mensical repair
