BTS, a part of the Departmentâs Research and Innovative Technology Administration, in a release of preliminary data, reported that U.S. airlines carried 0.6 percent more domestic passengers in 2012 and 2.0 percent more international passengers than in 2011 for a systemwide increase of 0.8 percent.
The meniscus tear recovery time without surgery is about 6 weeks and the meniscus tear recovery time after surgery is somewhere between 1 and 3 mounths. Also, a recent study shows that after 1 year there is no significant diference between surgery and physical therapy.
Small tears located at the outer edge of the meniscus often heal on their own. Larger tears located toward the center of the meniscus may not heal well, because blood supply to that area is poor. In a young person, surgery to repair the tear may be the first choice, because it may restore function. Surgery to repair these kinds of tears may not work. 2  If you have a tear in the white zone of the meniscus, repair surgery usually isn't done, because the meniscus may not heal. 3  But partial meniscectomy may be done if torn pieces of meniscus are causing pain and swelling.
