Question:
Hello Doctor,
I had a knee injury recently and got an MRI done. My report shows:
Mild sprain of ACL
Mild sprain of MCL (near femoral attachment)
Grade 1 chondromalacia patella
Minimal knee joint effusion
Mild soft tissue swelling
I am currently experiencing pain while walking and some swelling.
I would like to know:
Do I need complete rest or can I walk normally?
How long will recovery take?
Is physiotherapy required? If yes, when should I start?
Can this heal without surgery?
What medicines or precautions should I follow?
Is knee support or brace recommended?
When can I return to normal activities?
Thank you.
Please suggest the finding in the given reports of MRI what's the problem?
