My mother just suffered a hibiscus tear in one of her knees and is scheduled for an MRI tomorrow! Is it a muscle, and if she requires surgery what can we expect?
What is a hibiscus tear?
Do you mean meniscus? Anyway, that is a membrane that holds in all the fluid around the knee cap and it has torn. They will repair it, possibly laproscopically. She may have some pain and or discomfort. The biggest thing she needs to do after surgery to recover fully is to follow the doctor's orders and do her physical therapy as prescribed.
