Meniscus tear
In MRI i had grade 1 signal involving body and posterior horn of medial meniscus...
Basically i had over due of fast walking...and that's why i have yhis...
I have this since last 8 months...and taken physiotherapy for last 2 months...but the symptoms didn't seem to improve...
Is i am impatient and it will improve and i can run and jump without pain...or it will never improve?
As i am young and wants play sports...but can't...so this knee thing is bugging me on day day life...what is your opinion ?
