Regenerative Treatments for Knee Meniscus Tear Pain.


In the knee, there is a meniscus on the inside and outside of the knee. They act like shock absorber cushions between the thigh bone and the lower leg bone. Being made of cartilage they can be torn by stress or injury to the knee, which can cause knee pain and weakness and difficulty walking. If the tear is severe enough, surgery may be necessary, and usually, a knee replacement follows this initial surgery in time.
In many meniscus tear cases, however, we can help the tear to naturally and safely heal and repair, without invasive surgery, through the use of regenerative treatments such as stem cells. Many have been able to avoid surgery and knee replacement.
