If your doctor has told you that you don't need surgery to repair your torn meniscus, you may be given the green light to walk. However, you'll want to be very careful about movements that might worsen the tear or cause you pain. Avoid squatting and pivoting, which are likely to place too much pressure on the knee. To speed the recovery, you can: 1.Rest the knee. 2.Ice your knee to reduce pain and swelling. 3.Compress your knee. 4.Elevate your knee with a pillow under your heel when you're sitting or lying down. 5.Take anti-inflammatory medications. 6.Use stretching and strengthening exercises to help reduce stress to your knee. Will a knee brace help a torn meniscus? Yes. Although knee braces do not heal or treat your meniscus tear directly, they can provide extra support and stability for your knee while your meniscus injury heals. A good brace will protect your knee and take the pressure off your meniscus, allowing it to rest.
