Symptoms of a meniscus tear?

• Pain: Pain is the main symptom which is typically felt in the inner or outer parts of the knee as the torn fragment catches in the knee when twisting or turning.
• Swelling: Swelling can occur due to inflammation within the knee.
• Locking: Locking of the knee can occur when the piece of torn meniscus gets trapped in the knee. The knee can then bend but won’t go fully straight.
