“A meniscus tear is a common knee injury. The meniscus is a rubbery, C-shaped disk that acts as a “shock absorber” between the thighbone and shinbone. It helps cushion and stabilize the knee joint. Each knee has two menisci—one on the outside of the knee and one on the inside.” Please click the link below to learn more about meniscus injuries.
