<s>[INST] I had a fall in late February and went to the ER. I had an x-ray and I was told I had a probable meniscus tear and given crutches and told to ice it. In May I went back to my doctor because my knee was still so painful and swollen. He sent me for an MRI which confirmed the meniscus tear and suggested a probable tibial plateau fracture. In June I finally got the CT scan which confirmed the non-displaced tibial plateau fracture. I am concerned that I have been walking on this leg and am worried that more damage has been done. It has not been suggested that I not walk on it while I wait to see the orthopaedic surgeon but from what I have been reading I should not be weight bearing. Should I be on crutches? [/INST] Dear Sir/MadamI have gone through your query and read your symptoms.In my opinion, your undisplaced fracture should have healed by now, and the meniscus needs to be handled if you have pain, and locking sensation in the joint, normally a meniscus is debrided arthoscopically and this leads to decrease in pain, but you will need good physio, if you want to recover fully.I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back. </s>
