I had a torn meniscus, however they found that out only AFTER they went into my knee to clear out some dead cartilage. So I guess it depends on the severity. Some days the pain was mild, other days if I had been standing for a length of time my knee would be throbbing. I had minor knee surgery and it wasn't bad at all. I recovered quickly, however the rehab did take some time (about 2-3 months).
