Yes, mild swelling is common after arthroscopy for meniscus tear. Since knee arthroscopy surgery is a minimally invasive procedure performed inside the joint, some inflammation is a natural part of healing. During the early knee arthroscopy recovery time, the knee may feel slightly swollen or stiff for 1–2 weeks. Ice application, leg elevation, compression, and guided physiotherapy help reduce swelling and support smooth knee arthroscopy recovery time. However, if swelling increases or is associated with fever or severe pain after knee arthroscopy surgery, medical evaluation is recommended. Conclusion Mild swelling after arthroscopy for meniscus tear is normal and usually improves with proper care, ensuring steady healing during knee arthroscopy recovery time.
