[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2557166, member: 9374"] She's probably talking about a tibial plateau fracture, which can be where a piece of the bone is pulled off and[B] can be [/B]indicative of an ACL tear. Lots of people walk around every day of their lives with torn menisci, and even a lot with old ACL tears, neither of which heal on their own, if the ACL tear is complete. Menisci never heal on their own. It's a quality of life issue and depends on if you're going to [B]need [/B]it fixed. If you're that active, likely so. If you're not too active, then possibly not. Wait for the radiologist's read on it, and [B][U]go see a good orthopedic surgeon with the results.[/U][/B] Get a disc to take with you so the Ortho guy can look at it himself, as well. [/QUOTE]
