How long does recovery take after a meniscus tear?
Recovery from a meniscus tear varies greatly depending on how severe your tear is, its location and whether or not you had surgery to repair your meniscus tear.
Recovery from minor tears without surgery can take from 4 to 12 weeks, while recovery from more complex tears can take from a few months to a year, depending on the type of surgery you had and your individual recovery.
