My mom is 47 and has meniscal tears in her knee along with osteoarthritis. The doctor recommended arthroscopy but I'm worried if surgery is the best option given her osteoarthritis. Should we consider conservative treatment first or go ahead with the surgery?

For a 47-year-old with both meniscal tears and osteoarthritis, a conservative approach is often recommended before considering surgery, especially arthroscopy. While surgery can provide temporary relief, studies suggest that nonsurgical treatment, such as physical therapy and pain management, may be more effective and prevent further osteoarthritis progression.
