You may not have any problem in your day to day work. But you may feel a slipping sensation or instability in your joint during certain activities.
If you lead an active life and have instability in your knee you should get it operated
Do not expected to heal on its own
If you do strenuous activities on an unstable joint it will lead to early degeneration of your joint
