No it doesn't work. It's better to get operated. For now take analgesics and avoid strenuous work out , climbing stairs sitting cross legged and squatting. Use hinged knee brace

Depends on location of meniscus
If the tear is in lateral 1/3 rd it gets healed
If it's in medial 1/3 rd chances of healing are very less
Mostly require arthroscopic meniscus repair
Next Steps
use knee brace and do physiotherapy
Health Tips
avoid squatting and heavy activities for a few months
