Post Op Appt Tomorrow

What can I expect PT wise for a 3 cm meniscus removal from a bucket handle tear?

I’m an elementary school teacher and was planning on missing the last 4 weeks of school with a meniscus repair, but I’m not sure I’ll still need all that time with a removal.

Thoughts?

I know we aren’t doctors (unless you are, sorry), just curious from experience… My job requires a lot of up and around and was hard before surgery, so I can imagine it would be even more difficult after surgery.

TIA🩷
