To repair or replace a torn meniscus, a portion of cartilage in the knee, meniscus surgery is a typical procedure. The procedure takes roughly an hour and calls for a few minor incisions. Recuperation and recuperation require several weeks. You can resume your daily activities after the operation, which can also lessen pain and increase mobility and stability. There are two menisci in each knee. They are C-shaped, rubbery cushions that act as knee joint shock absorbers. Your doctor can advise surgery to remove or repair the damaged meniscus if it is injured or torn (also known as torn cartilage). Surgery for meniscus injuries is not uncommon, particularly in athletes. A meniscus can be torn by an abrupt bend, turn, or impact. Additionally, menisci injuries are common in older adults. Over time, the menisci weaken and become more prone to tearing. Meniscus tears can actually occur frequently as a natural component of aging.
