Answers:
a torn meniscus will settle but if you do any sport that involves jumping or twisting (as you do) then you must get it sorted out via surgery!.
the recovery is a few weeks and you'll be able to play with no problems!.
even if you don;t have problems now, a tear (bucket handle tear) will get worse and the pain will be VERY bad!.
get it done asap!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Cartilage will hardly ever heal on its own due to the lack of significant blood flow!. The surgery for it would likely be arthroscopic and you woud probably not even be on crutches afterward!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
maybe it healed by itself!. still go check and see if you still need surgery!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
