One of the most common knee problems is a torn meniscus. A torn meniscus can lead to severe pain in the knee, an inability to move the knee normally, or persistent knee pain.

In addition to clinical symptoms, the doctor will use the Macmurray and Appley tests. If these tests are positive, it may be a sign of a torn meniscus. In addition, the doctor may ask the patient to do some imaging tests such as knee X-ray, MRI, arthroscopy, etc. to confirm the condition of a torn meniscus.
