Description

Dr. Keith Roach is a physician at Weill Cornell Medical College and New York Presbyterian Hospital. He writes an educational column on infectious diseases, public health and sports medicine.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I have been suffering from strong pain on my left knee for a long time. An MRI was performed, which showed an “extensive degenerative tear throughout the body and a posterior horn of the medial meniscus.” It also showed a “flap tear of the body and an anterior horn of the lateral meniscus, with meniscal tissue displaced adjacent to the anterior horn.”
