Dr. Sabrina Strickland explains Meniscal Tears and Meniscectomy

On both sides of the joint, between the cartilage femur and tibia surfaces, are the medial meniscus and lateral meniscus. The menisci act to absorb shock and work with the cartilage to reduce stresses between the tibia and the femur.

Hi dear doctor in regards to my bucket handle tear on a meniscus and speaking of the injury itself , could a PRP injection be a potential alternative to surgery? Thank you
