Relieving the knee is designed to heal the stitched meniscus. The time of walking on crutches depends on the site, extent and nature of the meniscal damage and is usually 6-8 weeks. During this period, the percentage of weight bearing on the knee is gradually increased after consultation with the orthopedist and provided that it does not cause pain in the patient.
