A meniscus tear is a common knee injury. The meniscus is a rubbery, c-shaped disc that cushions your knee. With a minor tear, you may have slight pain and swelling. This usually goes away in 2 or 3 weeks with rest. In moderate tear, make your knee feel stiff and limit how you can bend your knee, but walking is usually possible. You might feel a sharp pain when you twist your knee or squat. These symptoms may go away in 1 or 2 weeks but can come back if you twist or overuse your knee. Rest, wrapping the knee with an elastic bandage, and propping up the leg on pillows will give you relief. But panchakarma therapy with internal medicines is needed for best result.
