I'm a 24-year-old male with bearable knee pain in both legs. I can walk and do daily activities, but climbing stairs or standing for long periods causes pain. My MRI shows a meniscus tear in both knees should I consider surgery or try physiotherapy first? Would love your advice based on the MRI reports.
