Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  If you have a torn meniscus, you most likely do not require surgery.  Have your orthopaedist order an MRI.  If surgical reparation is not necessary, acupuncture and low level laser therapy is quite effective in treating those minor meniscus tears.  Just ask some of my patients who were referred to my by their surgeons who said 'go get acupuncture - you don't need surgery'.  They're all back to playing golf, basketball, running marathons and enjoying life.
