What Is the Meniscus,
and Why Does It Matter? L E F T  U N T R E AT E D ,  I T  C A N  L E A D  TO :
Ongoing pain and swelling
The meniscus is a C-shaped piece of cartilage that cushions the knee 
joint, absorbing shock and providing stability between the thighbone 
and shinbone. A tear can happen suddenly during sports or gradually Reduced knee stability
through age-related wear.
Accelerated joint damage
Increased risk of early arthritis
Recognizing the warning signs early makes a real 
difference in treatment outcomes.

the extent of the tear.
