Hey,Healing of a meniscus tear depends on its severity, location, and underlying disease within the knee joint. Often it is possible to treat meniscus tears conservatively without an operation using anti-inflammatory medications and physical therapy rehabilitation to strengthen muscles around the knee to prevent joint instability. Anti inflammatories can be used to relieve pain.
