I got fell down from bike on a cement concrete road 7 days before from today. Strach on skin at knee and got small wound. Now I am feeling medium level pain at knee outward area while climbing steps. Doctor suggested for a ultrasound scan at knee which was attached here with. Impression: Lateral Meniscus shows linear anechoic area for a length of 3 mm - ? Tear - significant. Please suggest this can be cured back to normal condition through rest and medicine OR surgery is required to make it joined with other part to bring back to normal ?

The USG report is suggestive of partial tear of the lateral meniscus of the knee. However MRI is a more accurate to detect Meniscus tear.
