My mri report says that I have a full thickness acl tear of 9mm. It's been 25 days of injury and swelling is still there, even after taking anti inflammation drugs. My doctor recommended a surgery. My meniscus is also damage. Should I go for a surgery??? How much time does it takes to recover after surgery??? What are Demerits of surgery??
