"Michael, I'm sorry to have to tell you this - but you did actually tear the medial meniscus in your knee.It's bad enough that it will definitely require surgery to repair".

Oh goody..... another scar.... ##&$$@!!!

Still shreading mine, every time I hit the motocross track. I was able to rehab instead of the surgery route. I was told by a trusted friend to get a second opinion on surgery. The second and wiser doctor told me that I tore the "medial horn" and did not require surgery. After cycling through physical therapy a couple times, I'm now pain free.
Good luck!

Good luck Mufasa!
It is good that you didn't need surgery Neilbubbachuck, however, both my sister and sister in law have had knee surgeries in the past year, and they have said they would do it again in a heartbeat because they are no longer in pain.
