Exclusion Criteria: * We suggest not to include grade III meniscal injury as it is supposed that they need more physical therapy sessions. Ages above 40 is excluded to exclude arthritic changes. Presence of any other knee injury or systemic diseases affecting joints (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis) will be excluded. Patients with body mass index (BMI) more than 30 will be excluded as their knees may have some arthritic changes and need longer PT sessions.
