re: Tibia plateau fracture

Done plenty of surgeries on tibial plateaus. Stress fracture is promising, but we are missing information here. Did this occur from an accute injury? Or, are you a runner? Or, are you overweight?
If this is a new injury, I'm sure you will be on crutches, non-weight bearing until it heals. The meniscus might require a cleanup though.
If you are overweight (not trying to offend you, but being straight forward), you might have developed this over time? This might require different course of care.
Based on your info provided, I'm guessing quick scope to clean up meniscus, then non-weightbearing on leg for 4-6 weeks.
Good luck!!

Not overweight at all, probably underweight, active peloton rider which is more than likely what caused this. Happened around 11/12, originally diagnosed as tendonitis. Just woke up the next day with it swollen like a balloon. Rested and 0 peloton since mid-Nov and rested it. Never healed and continues to hurt which led to the MRI and those were the results. Did say it was a non-displaced fracture which is a silver lining.
