Brief Answer:
Rest and using knee brace will help.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
You have a tear of posterior horn of medial meniscus. The presence of the fluid in the bursa is suggestive of an inflammation in the area.
If it is a partial thickness tear then it can heal conservatively with the help of proper rest and using a knee brace.
You need to avoid weight bearing on the knee and give rest for at least 3 weeks. Physiotherapy will be needed after the removal of brace proper healing.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
