[QUOTE="orientalnc, post: 808405, member: 1199"] A meniscus tear is far less serious than a hyperextended knee. I am going by my memory of a conversation, not my own education. Since Embiid has been playing with his meniscus tear, it is likely his docs told him the tear was not likely going to worsen and he had to decide how much pain he could tolerate. There are allowed medications to deal with the inflammation. A hyperextended knee probably means a strained or torn ACL or PCL. Or both. You don't have to be a medical personal to know this is a lot more serious than pain management. The treatment begins with rest, ice, compression and elevation. For a lot more days then the Bucks probably have. It may require surgery unless it is very minor. My PT friend said a professional basketball player has learned to deal with pain in ways we can only imagine. SHe thinks he will play as much as his pain tolerance will allow. [/QUOTE]
