Your history suggests high energy trauma. Try applying Ice packs. Keep affected limb elevated. Medications like Enzomac will help in swelling. Wear knee immobiliser for 4 weeks. Ideal time for ligament recovery is 4 weeks.
Next Steps
After 4 weeks you can walk and if any instability persists, you can take treatment for that accordingly.

Hello, As u telling that u have grade 1 tear then no need of surgery as it is not a complete rupture. So give rest to ur knee joint. Avoid any sternous activity. Also consult to the physiotherapist near by.
