Thank you for the query.. It seems you already have MRI of knee... I think it needs surgery as there is medial meniscus tear and there is more stress on medial aspect of knee normally. It is hampering your daily activities too so better decide for surgery but your MRI finding and clinical finding needs to be co-related so consult an orthopedic surgeon. Dont worry surgery is not emergency. Till you consult the doctor , avoid knee bending, squating and cross leg positions. If pain is more u can take some pain killers such as Brufen/aceclofenac...
