You will have to go for repeat MRI to know exact problem with your knee. If it shows complete tear then probably it is a good idea to go for ACL reconstruction surgery. It will take couple of months to recover fully and to do your job. Recovery period will depend upon the expertise of orthopaedic surgeon and the protocol they follow for their procedure.
