Not risky. If the year is recent, depending on location; rest may help in meniscus healing. If tear  is relatively old , then keep working..if and when meniscus causes problems like pain, locking etc then you may need to get operated for meniscectomy.
Next Steps
share MRI reports and films.
Health Tips
Peripheral tears unite often, central ones do not heal.
