Got an MRI report showing a complete tear of the medial patellar retinaculum with fluid buildup and swelling, plus a sprain in the ACL and MCL. There's also some bone marrow edema in the lateral femoral condyle and mild knee effusion. Really worried about surgery is there any way to heal this with meds or other treatments instead?

View allI've had pain in my right knee for the past two weeks and the MRI scan shows a complex medial meniscus tear. What treatment options do I have or will I need surgery for this?
With a complex medial meniscus tear, treatment options depend on the severity, location, and symptoms. Non-surgical options like RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation), physical therapy, and pain management may be tried first. If these don't relieve symptoms or if the tear is large or causing instability, surgery (like arthroscopic repair or partial meniscectomy) may be necessary.
