Hi I am 28 year overweight female Bmi = 26. Met with an accident 2 years back which left me with my right knee medial meniscal tear and acl sprain. I am doing basic knee quads hams ex daily. But there is alwz 2-3/10 pain. Which worsens in winter. What more I can do for my knee conservatively. Is surgery or arthroscopy good option at this age. Please tell me because I am trying hard to keep my knee better.

26 bmi is alright. Clinical examination is necessary and evaluation of tear on mri films will give good insight to your problem. If pain is not improving since 2 years, it will be better to get it solved by arthroscopy. Arthroscopy surgery will be best for you if doctor feels you need surgery. Age is not a problem. You are very young, must get your problem settled.
