Injured Meniscus
One of the most typical causes of knee pain is damage to the meniscus, which is the cartilage in your knee that stabilizes and cushions the knee joint. Meniscal tears can also be painfully caused by arthritis in the knee, however meniscal injuries are typically sustained when participating in sports.
Your knee may twist and tear the cartilage that serves as padding between your thigh bone and shinbone during specific exercises, particularly contact sports.
Physical therapy [10], cortisone [11], or hyaluronic acid injections [12] can be used to treat meniscus injuries in addition to surgery, which is occasionally required.

They can work with you to develop a plan of care that will reduce your discomfort, safeguard your joints, and preserve your range of motion.
