Default grinding in 3rd

my car is grindin in 3rd when im shiftin over 4 rpm...syncros is probably bad but is it okay to keep driving as long as i keep it under 4rpm when i shift to 3rd? or will it eventually go real bad anyway and i have to get it fixed?

Syncro mesh?

Go into a little more detail for me? My tranny is grinding, syncros are really bad, but then again, my clutch is also really worn.

What does this syncro mesh? And what does it do?
