What s your main complaint..is it knee pain or swelling or crepitus sound or feeling of instability or buckling of the joint..
MRI is not going to tell us Ur symptoms..
As Ur meniscus n ACL is injured, u need to train strength of muscles surrounding the knee joint so as to decrease the load on meniscus and hv a balanced lower limb musculature..
