No the surgery is absolutely not compulsory, if your lifestyle is not affected by the injury you do not need to get operated. Just continue with physiotherapy . And Any how if in your future you start experiencing problems, which is unlikely than you can get operated anytime. There is as such no time frame in which you should get operated. Best of luck , continue physiotherapy and preferably take help of a sports physiotherapist.
