Conditions Treated
Meniscus Tears
Tears of the knee's shock-absorbing cartilage — common in sport and after 40.
Overview
The meniscus cushions and stabilises the knee. Preserving it, wherever possible, protects against future arthritis.
Symptoms
- Sharp pain on twisting or squatting
- Locking, catching or clicking in the knee
- Swelling that comes and goes
Causes & risk factors
- Twisting injury in younger patients
- Degenerative tears from age-related wear
Treatment options
- Physiotherapy for stable, degenerative tears
- Arthroscopic meniscus repair (preferred) or selective trimming
- Meniscal preservation to protect cartilage long-term

Patient stories
Patients on getting the right diagnosis
Real experiences from people who chose Dr. L. Tomar for their joint care.
“I had been told to 'live with it'. A proper evaluation identified what was actually treatable — and what wasn't.”
“Getting the right diagnosis for my groin pain took years. Once identified, treatment was straightforward and effective.”
“Non-surgical care worked for me — bracing, PRP and physiotherapy. Surgery was never rushed into.”
